Author: Nahum Tate, 1652-1714; Nicholas Brady, 1659-1726 Hymnal: Catholic Book of Worship III #358 (1994) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Have mercy, Lord, on us,
For you are ever kind;
Though we have sinned before you, Lord,
Your mercy let us find.
2 Lord, wash away our guilt,
And cleanse us from our sin;
For we confess our wrongs and see
How great our guilt has been.
3 The joy your grace can give
Let us again obtain;
And may your Spirit’s firm support
Our spirits then sustain.
4 To God the Father, Son,
And Spirit glory be,
Who was and is and shall be so
For all eternity. Topics: Lent; Mercy of God; Sacraments/Rites Scrutinies; Sacraments/Rites Reconciliation; Sacraments/Rites Reconciliation; Order of Christian Funerals Funeral Liturgy Scripture: Psalm 51 Languages: English Tune Title: SOUTHWELL
