Shalt thou my dear Saviour,
Thy kindness display,
And I seldom think, Lord, on thee?
The object most lovely,
The truth and the way,
The refuge where penitents flee.
Oh lead me and draw me,
And govern my heart,
There plant all the virtues divine;
Whatever thy mercy,
And grace may impart,
In me let their excellence shine.
Thus, Lord, in compassion,
A sinner restore,
And bid him return to his rest;
Thy goodness and mercy,
Oh may I adore,
And with all thy fulness be blessed.
