Tune: | SEYMOUR |
Composer: | Carl M von Weber, 1786-1826 |
1 Depth of mercy! can there be
Mercy still reserved for me?
Can my God His wrath forbear–
Me, the chief of sinners, spare?
2 I have long withstood His grace,
Long provoked Him to His face,
Would not hearken to His calls,
Grieved Him by a thousand falls.
3 Now incline me to repent;
Let me now my sins lament;
Now my foul revolt deplore,
Weep, believe, and sin no more.
4 There for me the Saviour stands,
Holding forth His wounded hands;
God is love! I know, I feel,
Jesus weeps and loves me still.
AMEN.
