| Text: | Lord, in this Thy mercy's day |

| Composer: | W. H. Monk |
1 Lord, in this Thy mercy's day,
Ere the time shall pass away,
On our knees we fall and pray.
2 Holy Jesus, grant us tears,
Fill us with heart-searching fears,
Ere that day of doom appears.
3 Lord, on us Thy Spirit pour,
Kneeling lowly at Thy door,
Ere it close for evermore.
4 By Thy night of agony,
By Thy supplicating cry,
By Thy willingness to die,
5 By Thy tears of bitter woe
For Jerusalem below,
Let us not Thy love forego.
6 Judge and Saviour of our race,
Grant us, when we see Thy face,
With Thy ransomed ones a place
7 On Thy love we rest alone,
And that love shall then be known
By the pardon'd, round Thy throne.
