HYMN 51. Boundless Mercy.
1
Of Mercy still, O Lord,We will together Sing;
And in sweet sacred Songs of Praise
Exalt our glorious King:
2
Let Heart and Tongue rejoyce,And say, Who's like to Thee?
Among the gods there's none that Thus
Forgives Iniquity.
3
We did not Pardon crave,When in our Blood we lay;
But t'was free Grace that moved Thee
Our cursed Debts to pay.
57
4
This Pardon is this DayTo sinners Offered;
Oh! is there none that will come in,
Whilst out thy Hands are spread!
5
You Happy are, O Souls,Who now forgiven be;
And also over a short time
You will it clearly see:
6
Then Sing, tho' in the DustYou ly a little while;
A Day is near that will make all
God's pardon'd Ones to smile.
