Backsliders, who your misery feel,
Attend your Saviour's call;
Return, he'll your backslidings heal;
O, crown him Lord of all.
Though crimson sin increase your guilt,
And painful is your thrall:
For broken hearts his blood was spilt,
O, crown him Lord of all.
Take with you words, approach his throne,
And low before him fall;
He understands the Spirit's groan,
O, crown him Lord of all.
Whoever comes, he'll not cast out,
Although your faith be small;
His faithfulness you cannot doubt,
Then crown him Lord of all.
