HYMN 7. GOD's Mercy shining: Or, The Chanel of Divine Mercy over-flowing.
1
We of thy Mercy, Lord, will sing,O it is Infinite!
Of all our Joys it is the spring,
let's Praise thee Day and Night:
2
Our Miseries will have an end,but thy Mercies abide
From Age to Age, it does extend
like to a swelling Tide,
3
That flows over all Banks and Boundsamazing to behold;
O'er all the World thy Mercy sounds,
O it is manifold!
12
4
But thy redeeming Mercy, Lord,we chiefly do admire;
Christ is the Chanel where it runs,
to raise the Wonder higher!
5
O Mercy then! Mercy we need,thy pardoning Mercy's sweet!
Preventing Mercy does, in Christ,
with every Mercy meet.
6
Sinners! take hold of Mercy then!let Saints Mercy adore:
And for thy Mercy let all Men
sing Praise for Evermore.
