which brought from heav'n the news and Prince of peace.
2 Cease not, wet eyes, his mercies to entreat;
to cry for vengeance sin doth never cease.
3 In your deep floods drown all my faults and fears;
nor let his eye see sin, but through my tears. Topics: Lent; Temptation, Penitence and Forgiveness Used With Tune: SONG 46
