1 Father, God, who seest in me
Only sin and Misery,
Turn to thy anointed One,
Look on thy beloved Son;
Him, and then the sinner, see;
Look thro' Jesus' wounds on me.

2 Heavenly Father, Lord of all,
Hear, and show thou hear'st my call;
Bow thine ear, in mercy bow,
Smile on me a sinner now:
Now the stone to flesh convert;
Cast a look, and melt my heart.

3 Lord, I cannot let thee go,
Till a blessing thou bestow;
Hear my Advocate divine,
Lo, to his my suit I join,
Join'd with his, it cannot fail;
Let me now with thee prevail.

4 Turn from me thy glorious eues
To his bloody sacrifice,
To the full atonement made,
To the utmost ransom paid;
And, if mine thro' him thou art,
Speak thy mercy to my heart.

5 Jesus, answer from above;
Is not all thy nature love?
Pity from thine eye let fall;
Bless me, whilst on thee I call;
Am I thine thou Son of God?
Take the purchase of thy blood.

6 Father, see the victim slain,
Offer'd up for guilty man;
Hear his blood's prevailing cry;
Let the bowels then reply:
Then thro' him the sinner see;
Then, in Jesus, look on me.
