God Of Mercy Lyrics

God Of Mercy - CatholicHymnal

...

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,

3 By my sins I have abandoned

Right and claim to Heav’n above,

Where the saints rejoice forever,

4 See our Savior, bleeding, dying,

On the cross of Calvary;

To that cross my sins have nailed Him,
