Depth of mercy!—can there be

1

Depth of mercy!—can there beMercy still reserved for me?Can my God his wrath forbear?Me, the chief of sinners, spare?

2

I have long withstood his grace,Long provoked him to his face,Would not hearken to his calls,Grieved him by a thousand falls.

3

Now incline me to repent;Let me now my sins lament;Now my foul revolt deplore,Weep, believe, and sin no more.

4

There for me the Saviour stands,Shows his wounds and spreads his hands;God is love! I know, I feel;Jesus weeps, and loves me still.
