God Of Mercy Lyrics

God Of Mercy - Catholic Communication

...

God of mercy and compassion

Look with pity upon me,

Father, let me call Thee Father,

Tis Thy child returns to thee.

Refrain :

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.

Refrain :

Jesus, Lord, I ask for mercy;

Let me not implore in vain;

All my sins, I now detest them,

Never will I sin again.

3. By my sins I have abandoned

Right and claim to heav'n above

Where the saints rejoice forever

In a boundless sea of love

Refrain :

Jesus, Lord, I ask for mercy;

Let me not implore in vain;

All my sins, I now detest them,

Never will I sin again.

4. See our Saviour, bleeding, dying,

On the cross of Calvary,

To that cross my sins have nail'd Him,

Yet he bleeds and dies for me.

Refrain :

Jesus, Lord, I ask for mercy;

Let me not implore in vain;

All my sins, I now detest them,

Never will I sin again.
