How far, alas, in sinful ways,
How far from God I've gone;
And now I mourn in painful lays —
Ah! Lord, what have I done!
To sin and Satan's bold demand,
I was a willing prey;
He was not readier to command.
Than I was to obey.
Perchance the tempter left my heart.
Yet still his work went on;
I acted o'er his dreadful part —
Ah! Lord, what have I done!
Saviour, Almighty and divine,
I've slighted all thy charms;
Restore me from this sad decline.
Nor thrust me from thy arms.
