But in mercy spare us,
Save us from our just reward,
In Thy pity hear us.
Though our sin,
Great hath been,
Let Christ's intercession
Cover our transgression.
2 Strengthen us in love, O Lord,
Gently as a Father;
When Thou dost Thy help afford
All our fears are over.
Weak indeed,
We have need
That Thy love correct us,
And thy grace protect us.
3 Glorious God, Thy Name we praise;
Father, Son and Spirit;
Now and through eternal days,
As Thy mercies merit,
Glory be
Unto Thee
Who hast pity on us,
And with love hast won us.
Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Repentance Languages: English Tune Title: STRAF MICH NICHT
