Depth of Mercy
Depth of Mercy
Depth of mercy! Can there be
Mercy still reserved for me?
Can my God His wrath forbear—
Me the chief of sinners spare?
I have long withstood His grace,
Long provoked Him to His face,
Would not hearken to His calls,
Grieved Him by a thousand falls.
Now incline me to repent;
Let me now my sins lament;
Now my foul revolt deplore,
Weep, believe and sin no more.
There for me the Savior stands,
Holding forth His wounded hands;
God is love! I know, I feel!
Jesus weeps and loves me still.
Charles Wesley
