Hear me, O God!
A broken Heart,
Is my best part;
Use still thy rod,
That I may prove
Therein thy Love.
If thou hadst not
Been stern to me,
But left me free,
I had forgot
Myself and thee time.
For sin's so sweet,
As minds ill bent
Rarely repent,
Untill they meet
Their punishment
Who more can crave
Than thou hast done,
That gav'st a Son,
To free a slave?
First made naught
With all since bought
Above my loss
As sure to win
Under His cross.
