7.7.7.7. sung to Mercy 1 OH, my Saviour crucified Near Thy cross would I abide, Gazing with adoring eye On Thy dying agony. 2 Jesus bruised and put to shame, Tells the glories of God's name; Holy judgment there I found, Grace did there o'er sin abound. 3 God is love I surely know, In the Saviour's depth of woe, In the Sinless, in God's sight, Sin is justly brought to light. 4 In His spotless soul's distress, I have learnt my guiltiness; Oh how vile my low estate, Since my ransom was so great! 5 Rent the veil that closed the way To my home of heavenly day, In the flesh of Christ the Lord, Ever be His name adored! 6 Yet in sight of Calvary, Contrite should my spirit be, Rest and holiness there find Fashioned like my Saviour's mind. |
