Saviour, Prince of Israel’s race

1.

Saviour, Prince of Israel’s race

See me from Thy lofty throne

Give the sweet relenting grace

Soften this obdurate stone

Stone to flesh, O God, convert

Cast a look, and break my heart.

2.

By thy Spirit, Lord, reprove

All my in most sin reveal

Sins against Thy light and love

Let me see and let me feel

Sins that crucified my God

Split again Thy precious blood

3.

Jesus, seek Thy wand’ring sheep

Make me restless to return

Bid me look on Thee and weep

Bitterly as Peter mourn

Till I say, by grace restored

Now Thou knowst I love Thee, Lord!

4.

Might I in Thy sight appear

As the publican distress’d

Stand, not daring to draw near

Smite on my unworthy breast

Groan the sinner’s only plea

God, be merciful to me

5.

O remember me for good

Passing through the mortal vale

Show me the atoning blood

When my strength and spirit fail

Give my grasping soul to see

Jesus crucified for me!
