4. Show thy mercy unto me

1 Thee I seek, O gracious Saviour,
Unto thee for mercy cry,
Thou art full of love compassion,
Guilty, wretched, weak am I.

Refrain:
Unto me, O, blessed Jesus,
Show thy mercy unto me;
Unto me, Unto me,
Show thy mercy unto me.

2 I am sinful, vile, polluted,
All unworthy of thy love,
Grant me pardon and salvation,
From thy throne of grace above. [Refrain]

3 View me, Lord, with tender pity,
Be thou merciful to me,
Wash me in thy cleansing fountain,
From my burden set me free. [Refrain]
