7.7.7.7 with Alleluias Tunes1.
Depth of mercy! Can there be
Mercy still reserved for me?
Can my God His wrath forbear?
Me, the chief sinners, spare?
2.
I have long withstood His grace
Long provoked Him to face
Would not hearken to His calls
Griev’d Him by a thousand falls
3.
Whence to me this waste of love?
Ask my Advocate above
See the cause in Jesus’ face
Now before the throne of grace
4.
There for me the saviour stands
Shows His wounds and spreads His hands
God is love, I know, I feel
Jesus weeps and love me still
5.
Jesus, answer from above
Full of boundless love Thou art
I fall down beneath Thy feet
Will Thou not forgive my sins
6.
Bring my heart to repentance
That I may weep for my sins
Have contrition for my sins
Believe and ne’er sin again
Amen
