Whose guilt is pardoned by his God;
Whose sins with sorrow are confessed,
And covered with his Savior's blood.

At thy command diseases fly:
Who but a God can speak and save
From the dark borders of the grave?

Begins his glorious way;
His beams through all the nations run,
And life and light convey.

Who haste to seek some idol-god!
I will not taste their sacrifice,
Their offerings of forbidden blood.

In work so pleasant, so divine;
Now, while the flesh is mine abode,
And when my soul ascends to God.

My righteous Judge, my gracious God,
Hear when I spread my hands abroad,
And cry for succor from thy throne;
O make thy truth and mercy known!

'Twas from thy hand, my God, I came,
A work of such a curious frame
In me thy fearful wonders shine,
And each proclaims thy skill divine.

Up from my youth, may Isr'el say,
Have I been nursed in tears;
My griefs were constant as the day,
And tedious as the years.
