God of Mercy and Compassion Lyrics (Key Bb)
d.t,/l,:d:m.m/r.d:t, :d.t,/l,:d.t:l,.s,/l,:-:-//
1. God of mercy and compassion,
Look with pity upon me;
Father, let me call thee Father,
‘Tis thy child returns to thee.
Chorus: Jesus Lord, I ask for mercy
Let me not implore in vain,
All my sins I now detest them
Never will I sin again.
2. By my sins I have deserved,
Death and endless misery;
Hell with all its pains and torments.
And for all eternity.
3. By my sins I have abandoned
Right and claim to heaven above;
Where the saints rejoice forever.
In a boundless sea of love.
4. See our Saviour, bleeding, dying;
On the Cross of Calvary;
To that cross my sins have nailed him,
Yet he bleeds and dies for me.
