God, be merciful to me a sinner.
Luke 18:13.

Hear, gracious God! a sinner’s cry,

For I have nowhere else to fly;

My hope, my only hope’s in thee;

O God, be merciful to me!

2 To thee I come, a sinner poor,

And wait for mercy at thy door;

Indeed, I’ve nowhere else to flee;

O God, be merciful to me!

3 To thee I come, a sinner weak,

And scarce know how to pray or speak;

From fear and weakness set me free;

O God, be merciful to me!

4 To thee I come, a sinner vile;

Upon me, Lord, vouchsafe to smile!

Mercy alone I make my plea;

O God, be merciful to me!

5 To thee I come, a sinner great,

And well thou knowest all my state;

Yet full forgiveness is with thee;

O God, be merciful to me!

6 To thee I come, a sinner lost,

Nor have I aught wherein to trust,

But where thou art, Lord, I would be,

O God, be merciful to me!
