Author: John Newton Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 38 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Lord, how vile am I, Unholy, and unclean! How can I dare to venture nigh With such a load of sin? 2 Is this polluted heart A dwelling fit for Thee? Swarming, alas! in every part What evils do I see! 3 If I attempt to pray, And lisp Thy holy name, My thoughts are hurried soon away; I know not where I am. 4 If in Thy word I look, Such darkness fills my mind, I only read a sealèd book, But no relief can find. 5 Thy Gospel oft I hear, But hear it still in vain; Without desire, or love, or fear, I like a stone remain. 6 Myself can hardly bear This wretched heart of mine; How hateful then must it appear To those pure eyes of Thine? 7 And must I then indeed Sink in despair and die? Fain would I hope that Thou didst bleed For such a wretch as I. 8 That blood which Thou hast spilt, That grace which is Thine own; Can cleanse the vilest sinner’s guilt, And soften hearts of stone. 9 Low at Thy feet I bow, Oh pity and forgive; Here will I lie and wait, till Thou Shalt bid me rise and live.

And wilt Thou pardon, Lord

Author: St. Joseph the Hymnographer; John Mason Neale Appears in 24 hymnals Lyrics: 1 And wilt Thou pardon, Lord, A sinner such as I? Although Thy book his crimes record, Of such a crimson dye? 2 So deep are they engraved, So terrible their fear-- The righteous scarcely can be saved, And where shall I appear? 3 O Thou, Physician blest, Make clean my guilty soul! And me, by many sins oppressed, Restore, and keep me whole! 4 I know not how to praise Thy mercy and Thy love; But deign Thy servant to upraise, And I shall learn above!
