Lyics

WILL you still sit alone

Oppressed with grief and fear?

To God our Father, make your moan,

And still refuse to hear?



Since now you do believe,

His pity he will show;

From all your sins will set you free,

And inward peace bestow.



Then do but humbly come,

Nor once indulge despair;

Your sins are great, but not so great

As his compassions are.



Behold the throne of grace!

The promise calls you near;

Here Jesus points you to a place,

And waits to answer prayer.
