How Sad Our State by Nature Is

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 291 hymnals Lyrics: 1. How sad our state by nature is! Our sin, how deep the stain! And Satan binds our captive minds Fast in his slavish Chains. 2. But here a Voice of sov'reign grace Sounds from the sacred Word: Come, ye despairing sinners, come, And trust upon the Lord. 3. My soul obeys th’ almighty call And runs to this relief; I would believe your promise, Lord; Oh! help my unbelief. 4. To the dear fountain of your blood, Incarnate God, I fly; Here let me wash my spotted soul From crimes of deepest dye. 5. Stretch out your arm, victorious King, My reigning sins subdue; Drive the old dragon from his seat, With all his hellish crew. 6. A guilty, weak, and helpless worm, On your kind arms I fall; Be now my strength and righteousness, My Jesus, and my all.
