JESUS
HEAR AND SAVE
God of pity, God of grace,
When we humbly seek Thy face,
Bend from heaven Thy dwelling place,
Hear, forgive, and save.
When we in Thy temple meet,
Spread our wants before Thy feet,
Pleading at the mercy seat:
Look from heaven and save.
Should we wander from Thy fold,
And our love to Thee grow cold,
With a pitying eye behold,
Lord, forgive, and save.
Should the hand of sorrow press
Earthly care and want distress,
May our souls Thy peace possess,
Jesus, hear, and save.
When Thy love our hearts shall fill,
And we long to do Thy hill,
Turning to Thy holy will:
Lord, accept, and save.
And whate'er our cry may be,
When we lift our hearts to Thee,
From our burden set us free,
Jesus, hear, and save.
