HYMN 64. —But they said, There is no Hope.
1
Lord, of thy Mercy we will sing,thy Mercy hath no bound;
They that have said, There is no Hope,
thy Mercy sweet have found.
2
Sinners break forth, and in amaze,do you Rejoyce, and say,
There's Hope, that we may Mercy find,
believe, and do not stay.
3
O Lord, thou dost not look that Menshould Worthiness obtain:
Or some inherent fitness get,
much less be Born again,
4
Before that they take hold on Thee,but presently Believe;
And on thy Promise lay fast hold,
and Christ strait-way receive.
5
Glory to God, Glory to Christ,let Sinners say no more,
There is no Hope; let all Believe,
and thy free Grace adore.
