Lord, hear a burden’d sinner mourn,
Who gladly would to thee return;
Thy tender; mercies, O impart,
And take away this stony heart.
’Tis this hard heart, which sinks me down,
Nor asks thy smile, nor fears thy frown;
This causes all my woe and heart;
Lord, take away this stony heart.
’Tis this hard heart, my gracious Lord,
Which scorns thy love, and slights thy word;
Which tempts me from thee to depart;
Lord, take away this stony heart.
’Tis this hard heart which, day by day,
Would shut my mouth, nor let me pray;
Yea, would from ev'ry duty start;
Lord, take away this stony heart.
Sure the blest day will shortly come,
When this hard heart shall know its doom,
When I no more shall sin retain,
Nor of a stony heart complain.
Yes, friendly death, with welcome stroke,
Will loose the chain, will break the yoke;
And when arriv'd on Canaan's shore
A stony heart be felt no more.
