Approach My Soul

Approach my soul the mercy seat
Where Jesus answers prayer
There humbly fall before his feet
For none can perish there
Thy promise is my only plea
With this I venture nigh
Thou callest burdened souls to Thee
And such O Lord am I

O wondrous love to bleed and die
To bear the cross and shame
That guilty sinners such as I
Might plead thy gracious name

Bowed down beneath a load of sin
By Satan sorely pressed
By war without and fears within
I come to thee for rest
Be Thou my shield and hiding place
That sheltered near thy side
I may my fierce accuser face
And tell him Thou hast died

O wondrous love to bleed and die
To bear the cross and shame
That guilty sinners such as I
Might plead thy gracious name
O wondrous love to bleed and die
To bear the cross and shame
That guilty sinners such as I
Might plead thy gracious name

Approach my soul the mercy seat
Where Jesus answers prayer
