Oh, that the Lord would hear my cry,
And stay his anger lest I die!
Thy wrath is just—yet, oh, forgive!
And let a mourning sinner live.
In all my frame, without, within,
I feel the sad effects of sin;
How long, my God, must I complain.
And deprecate thy wrath in vain?
Oh, should I die deprived of thee!
What being else can succour me?
Thy frowns would rend my soul in death,
And sink it to the depths beneath.
Ye darling sins, that plague me so,
The greatest enemies I know.
Depart—for God hath heard my pray'r.
And will not let me long despair.
No; —I shall yet his goodness bless;
And when this transient life shall pass,
Then, full of glory, I shall prove
He can be just, and sinners love.
