Before thy cross lamenting, My Savior, I would lie

Before thy cross lamenting, My Savior, I would lie

Published in 6 hymnals

Representative Text

1 Before thy cross lamenting,
My Saviour, I would lie,
Of all my sins repenting,
That caused my Lord to die.
My soul with tears of anguish
Her follies would confess;
Oh, while in pain I languish,
Restore me by thy grace.
