Hymnal: Society hymns, original and selected on evangelical and experimental subjects #VIII (1790) First Line: Lord, didst thou die, but not for me? Lyrics: 1 Lord, didst thou die, but not for me?
Am I forbid to trust thy blood?
Hast thou not pardon rich and free,
Seal'd in the kind atoning flood?
2 Who then shall drive my trembling soul
From thee to regions of despair?
Who has survey'd the sacred roll,
And found my name not written there?
3 Presumptuous thought! to fix the bound,
To limit mercy's sovereign reign;
What other happy souls have found,
I'll seek, nor shall I seek in vain.
4 I own my guilt, my sins confess;
Can men or devils make them more?
Of crimes, already numberless,
Vain the attempt to swell the score.
5 Were the black list before my sight,
While I remember thou hast dy'd,
'Twould only urge my speedier flight
To seek salvation at thy side.
6 Low at thy feet I'll cast me down,
To thee reveal my guilt and fear;
And, if thou spurn me from thy throne,
I'll be the first who perish there. Languages: English
