LyicsLord of mercy and of might,
Of mankind, the life and light,
Maker, Teacher, infinite;
Jesus, hear and save!
Great Creator, Saviour mild,
Humbled to a mortal child,
Captive, beaten, bound, reviled,
Jesus, hear and save!
Lamb of God, for sinners slain,
Thou didst bear our grief and pain;
Cleanse us now from every strain;
Jesus, hear and save!
Thron'd above celestial things,
Borne a loft on angels wings,
Lord of lords, and King of kings
Jesus, hear and save!
Soon descend to earth again,
Judge of angels and of men,
Hear us now and hear us then;
Jesus, hear and save!
