Trinity Hymnal ‎#417

417. Remember not, O God

1 Remember not, O God,
The sins of long ago;
In tender mercy visit us,
Distressed and humbled low.

2 O Lord, our Saviour, help,
And glorify thy Name;
Deliver us from all our sins
And take away our shame.

3 In thy compassion hear
Thy pris'ners' plaintive sigh,
And in the greatness of thy pow'r
Save those about to die.

4 Then, safe within thy fold
We will exalt thy Name;
Our thankful hearts with songs of joy
Thy goodness will proclaim.

Amen.
