3 That flows over all Banks and Bounds amazing to behold; Over all the World thy Mercy sounds, O it is manifold!
3 That flows over all Banks and Bounds amazing to behold; O'er all the World thy Mercy sounds, O it is manifold!
4 But thy redeeming Mercy, Lord, we chiefly do admire; Christ is the Chanel where it runs, to raise the Wonder higher!
5 O Mercy then! Mercy we need, thy pardoning Mercy's sweet! Preventing Mercy does, in Christ, with every Mercy meet.
6 Sinners! take hold of Mercy then! let Saints Mercy adore: And for thy Mercy let all Men sing Praise for Evermore.
