252. Weary sinner, keep thine eyes

1 Weary sinner, keep thine eyes
On th'atoning Sacrifice;
View Him bleeding on the tree,
Pouring out His life for thee;
There thy every sin He bore;
Weeping soul, lament no more.

2 Cast thy guilty soul on Him,
Find Him mighty to redeem:
At His feet thy burden lay,
Look thy doubts and care away:
Now by faith the Son embrace,
Plead His promise, trust His grace.

Amen.
