Have Mercy, Lord, Thy Wrath Remove

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11113 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Have mercy, Lord, Thy wrath remove, Nor let Thy judgments weigh me down; I cannot live without Thy love, I cannot stand beneath Thy frown. 2 Wilt Thou not once Thy face display, And dart a ray of heavenly light? Still must I urge my cheerless way, And mourn throughout my long-lived night? 3 Lo! In my prayer I ever mourn, Vexed with the sad remains of sin, Broken, and bruised, and racked, and torn, How shall I bear this hell within? 4 This unbelief, these cruel fears, Distracting doubts, and torturing pain, While Thou art silent at my tears, Thou see’st them ever flow in vain. 5 And must I yield to black despair? In vain on Thee for mercy call, Tempted above what I can bear! And wilt Thou suffer me to fall? 6 Never again disclose Thy face, Or show me the atoning blood? Have I exhausted all Thy grace? Hath God forgotten to be good? 7 Forever is Thy mercy gone, Thy truth, and faithfulness, and love? Doth angry justice rule alone? Have I no advocate above? 8 Then pour Thy vengeance on my head, And quench the smoking flax in me, Break (if Thou canst) a bruisèd reed, And cast me out who come to Thee. 9 Jesu, I come my doom to meet, A sinner whom Thou wilt not spare: But I will perish at Thy feet, The first that ever perished there!
