Dear Jesus, let thy pitying eye
Call back a wand'ring sheep;
False to my vows, like Peter, I
Would fain, like Peter, weep,
Now let me be by grace restor'd.
To me thy mercy shown;
Oh, turn and look upon me, Lord,
And break my heart of stone.
Almighty Prince, enthron'd above,
Repentance to impart,
Grant, thro' the greatness of thy love
The humble, contrite heart.
Give, what I should have long implor'd
A taste of love unknown;
Oh, turn and look upon me, Lord,
And break my heart of stone.
Behold me, Saviour, from above,
Nor suffer me to die;
For life, and happiness, and love,
Smile in thy gracious eye.
Speak but the reconciling word;
Let mercy melt me down:
Oh, turn and look upon me, Lord,
And break my heart of stone.
