254. A Physician wanted

1 And wilt thou hear, O Lord,
Thy suppliant people's cry?
And parson though thy book record
Our crimes of crimson dye?

2 So deep are they engraved,--
So terrible their fear:
The righteous scarcely shall be saved,
And where shall we appear?

3 Let us make all things known
To him who all things sees:
That so his blood may yet atone
For our iniquities.

4 O thou, Physician blest,
Make clean the guilty soul;
And us, by many a sin oppressed,
Restore, and keep us whole!
