A wonderful song to sing during Lent. Our family sings this after
we say the Stations of the Cross. You will find the lyrics below:
God of mercy and compassion,
Look with pity upon me.
Father let me call Thee Father,
'Tis thy child returned to Thee.
**Jesus, Lord I ask for mercy,
Let me not implore in vain.
All my sins I now detest them,
Never will I sin again.
By my sins I have deserved
Death and endless misery.
Hell with all its pains and torment,
And for all eternity.
**
By my sins I have abandoned,
Right and claim to Heaven above,
Where the Saints rejoice forever,
In a boundless sea of love.
**
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.
