And Wilt Thou Pardon, Lord

Verse 1

And wilt Thou pardon, Lord, A sinner such as I, Although Thy book his crimes record, Of such a crimson dye?

Verse 2

So deep are they engraved, So terrible their fear. The righteous scarcely can be saved, And where shall I appear?

Verse 3

O Thou Physician blest, Make clean my guilty soul And me, by many a sin opprest, Restore and keep me whole!

Verse 4

I know not how to praise Thy mercy and Thy love; But deign my soul from earth to raise And learn from Thee above.

Verse 5

Amen.
