Great God to thee I make
My sins and sorrows known;
And with a trembling heart
Approach thine awful throne;
Tho' by my sins deserving hell,
I must repent—for who can tell?—
O thou, who by a word
My drooping soul canst cheer,
And by thy Spirit form
Thy glorious image there—-
My heart subdue, my fears dispel,
I must repent—for who can tell?—
While conscience thunders loud,
To thee alone I fly—
Fall down before thy face—
And mightily will cry—
Tho' fears prevail that I shall dwell
In endless flames—yet who can tell?—
God hath an ear to hear,
While I've a heart to pray—
To him I will submit.
And give myself away:
If he be mine, ail will be well,
For ever so—and who can tell?
