Author: John Ellerton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11677 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: Giver of the perfect gift! Lyrics: 1 Giver of the perfect gift!
Only hope of human race!
Hear the prayer our hearts uplift
Trembling at Thy throne of grace.
2 Though the accusing voice within
Speaks of many a wrong to Thee,
Thou canst cleanse from every sin,
Thou canst set the conscience free.
3 Who can save us, Lord, but Thou?
Let Thy mercy show Thy power;
Lo, we plead Thy promise now,
Now, in this accepted hour.
4 Oh! may these our Lenten days,
Blest by Thee, with Thee be passed,
That with purer, nobler praise
We may keep Thy feast at last.
5 God the holy Trinity,
Grant the mercy we implore;
God the One, all praise to Thee
Through the ages evermore! Languages: English Tune Title: WIGAN
