1 IS there no Mercy in the Lord? sinners! can you say so? Of Mercy sing with one accord, Mercy doth overflow! 2 The Waters which are in the Sea, and Light that's in the Sun, Are fewer than thy Mercies are, to sinners quite undone.
3 Thy Bowels yearn in thee to those who in their Blood do lie; If they Believe thou wilt forgive all their Iniquity: 4 But some will not thy Mercy have, they it do not desire; ⟨p. 16⟩In the right Way, do it not crave; nor after it enquire!
3 Thy Bowels yearn in thee to those who in their Blood do ly; If they Believe thou wilt forgive all their Iniquity: 4 But some will not thy Mercy have, they it do not desire; ⟨p. 16⟩In the right Way, do it not crave; nor after it enquire!
5 But you that see the Chanel, where Mercy doth sweetly run, Exalt God's Name, and sing his Praise, until your Lives are done. 6 At Death and in the Judgment-day, God's mercy you shall find, If you do leave your evil Ways and have a changed Mind.
