Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #454 (1886) Lyrics: 1 In mercy, not in wrath,
Rebuke me, gracious God!
Lest, if thy whole displeasure rise,
I sink beneath thy rod.
2 Touched by thy quickening power,
My load of guilt I feel;
The wounds thy Spirit hath unclosed
O let that Spirit heal!
3 In trouble and in gloom,
Must I forever mourn?
And wilt thou not at length, O God,
In pitying love return?
4 O come; ere life expire,
Send down thy power to save;
For who shall sing thy name in death,
Or praise thee in the grave? Topics: The Sinner Repentance and Acceptance Tune Title: CONTRITION
In mercy, not in wrath
