LyicsApproach, my soul, the mercy seat,
Where Jesus answers prayer,
And humbly fall before his feet,
For none can perish there.
His promise is my only plea-
With this I venture nigh;
Thou callest burdened souls to thee,
And such, O Lord, am I!
Bowed down beneath a load of sin,
By Satan's sorely pressed,
By wars without and fears within,
I come to thee for rest.
O, wondrous love, to bleed and die,
To bear the cross and shame,
That guilty sinners such as I
Might plead thy gracious name.
