Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and Prayers, for Public and Private Worship #296 (1845) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Dear Jesus, let thy pitying eye
Call back a wand'ring sheep;
False to my vows, like Peter, I
Would fain, like Peter, weep.
2 Now let me be by grace restor'd,
To me thy mercy shown;
Oh turn and look upon me, Lord,
And break my heart of stone.
3 Almighty Prince, enthron'd above,
Repentance to impart,
Grant, thro' the greatness of thy love,
The humble, contrite heart.
4 Give, what I should have long implor'd,
A taste of love unknown;
Oh, turn and look upon me, Lord,
And break my heart of stone.

Nor suffer me to die;
For life, and happiness, and love
Smile in thy gracious eye.

Let mercy melt me down;
Oh, turn and look upon me, Lord,

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #344 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, let Thy pitying eye
Call back a wandering sheep;

And break my heart of stone.

And break my heart of stone.

The gracious wonder show;
Cast my sins behind Thy back,
And wash me white as snow,
Speak my paradise restored
Redeem me by Thy grace alone;
Turn, and look upon me, Lord,
And break my heart of stone.
4 Look, as when Thy languid eye
Was closed, that we might live;

Thou break'st my heart of stone! Topics: Contrition; The Church and the Kingdom of God Evangelism; Penitence; Repentance Languages: English Tune Title: AMSTERDAM
