Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal #262 (2011) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Hymnal Title: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal First Line: Depth of mercy! can there be Lyrics: 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 Savior stands,
Holding forth His wounded hands;
God is love! I know, I feel,
Jesus weeps and loves me still. Topics: The Christian Life Repentance and Forgiveness Scripture: Psalm 108:4 Languages: English Tune Title: SEYMOUR
