Full Lyrics
[VERSE 1]
God of mercy and compassion,
Look with pity upon me,
Father let me call thee father,
Tis thy child returns to me.
[CHORUS]
Jesus Lord I ask for mercy,
Let me not implore in vain,
All my sins I now detest them,
Never will I sin again.
[VERSE 2]
By my sins I have deserved,
Death and endless misery;
Hell with all it's pains and torments,
And for all eternity.
[VERSE 3]
By my sins I have abandoned,
Right and claim to heaven above;
Where the saint rejoice forever,
In a boundless sea of Love.
[VERSE 4]
See our Saviour bleeding, dying
On the cross of Calvary;
To that cross my sins have nailed him,
Yet he bleeds and dies for me.
