Can my God His wrath forbear, Me, the chief of sinners, spare? 2 I have long withstood His grace, Long provoked Him to His face, Would not hearken to His calls, Grieved Him by a thousand falls. 3 Now incline me to repent; Let me now my sins lament; Now my foul revolt deplore, Weep, believe, and sin no more. 4 There for me the Saviour stands, Holding forth His wounded hands; God is love! I know, I feel, Jesus weeps and loves me still. Amen. Used With Tune: SEYMOUR

O Thou that hear'st when sinners cry

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 344 hymnals Topics: Contrition Lyrics: 1 O Thou that hear'st when sinners cry; Though all my crimes before Thee lie, Behold them not with angry look; But blot their mem'ry from Thy book. 2 Create my nature pure within, And form my soul averse to sin; Let Thy good Spirit ne'er depart, Nor hide Thy presence from my heart. 3 I cannot live without Thy light, Cast out and banish from Thy sight; Thy holy joys, my God, restore, And guard me that I fall no more. 4 A broken heart, my God, my King, Is all the sacrifice I bring: The God of grace will ne'er despise A broken heart for sacrifice. 5 My soul lies humbled in the dust And owns Thy dreadful sentence just: Look down, O Lord, with pitying eye, And save the soul condemned to die. Amen. Used With Tune: WARNER
