1053  GOSPEL — Crying to the Lord

1. With broken heart and contrite sigh,
  A trembling sinner, Lord, I cry;
  Thy pard'ning grace is rich and free:
  O God, be merciful to me!
2. I smite upon my troubled breast,
  With deep and conscious guilt oppressed;
  Christ and His cross my only plea:
  O God, be merciful to me!
3. Far off I stand with tearful eyes,
  Nor dare uplift them to the skies;
  But Thou dost all my anguish see,
  O God, be merciful to me!
4. With alms, or deeds that I have done,
  Not one sin's pardon can be won;
  To Calvary alone I flee;
  O God, be merciful to me!
5. And when redeemed from sin and hell,
  With all the ransomed throng I dwell,
  My raptured song shall ever be,
  God has been merciful to me!
