Caedmons Call Thy Mercy
Thy mercy, my god is the theme of my song Thy free grace alone from the first to the last The joy of my heart and the boast of my tongue Without thy sweet mercy I could not live here Sin would reduce me to utter despair Hath won my affection and bound my soul fast And he that first made me still keeps me alive But through thy free goodness my spirit's revived Thy mercy is more than a match for my heart Which wonders to feel its own hardness depart Hallelujah Dissolved by thy goodness I fall to the ground And weep to the praise of the mercy Ive found Great father of mercies thy goodness I own Hallelujah And the covenant love of thy crucified son All praise to the spirit whose whisper divine Seals mercy and pardon and righteousness mine All praise to the spirit whose whisper divine Seals mercy and pardon and righteousness mine
