Have mercy, Lord! 2 My blest Redeemer, Thy dear Son, On Calvary my ransom won. The Friend of sinners died for me, To reconcile me unto Thee. The curse of Law for me He bore. For His dear sake, My God, restore Salvation's holy joy to me. Hark to a contrite sinner's plea: Forgive me, Lord! Forgive me, Lord! 3 Thy Holy Spirit, through Thy word, Assures me of Thy grace, dear Lord. My risen High Priest intercedes, His holy blood for pardon pleads.

O cleanse me, Lord! 4 Thy loving-kindness I shall praise, O gracious Lord, through all my days.
