Lyrics 🎶

1. God of mer­cy and com­pas­sion,
Look with pi­ty up­on me.
Father, let me call Thee Fa­ther,
’Tis Thy child re­turns to Thee.

Chorus

Jesus, Lord, I ask for mer­cy;
Let me not im­plore in vain;
All my sins—I now de­test them,
Never will I sin again.

2. By my sins I have deserved
Death and endless misery;
Hell, with all its pains and torments,
And for all eternity.

3. By my sins I have abandoned
Right and claim to Heav’n above,
Where the saints rejoice forever,
In a boundless sea of love.

4. See our Savior, bleeding, dying,
On the cross of Calvary;
To that cross my sins have nailed Him,
Yet He bleeds and dies for me.

Beautifully orchestrated by Rev. Winfred Lomotey Nartey-Graham.
