Depth of Mercy
Depth of mercy, can there be
Mercy still reserved for me?
Can my God His wrath forbear?
Me, the chief of sinners, spare?
"Whence to me this waste of love?"
Ask my Advocate above
See the cause in Jesus' face
Now before the throne of grace
I have long withstood His grace
Long provoked Him to His face
Would not harken to His calls
Grieved Him by a thousand falls
There, for me, the Savior stands
Shows His wounds, and spreads His hands
God is love, His grace so free
Depth of mercy, there for me
I my Master have denied
I afresh have crucified
And profaned His hallowed name
Put Him to an open shame
Jesus speaks and pleads His blood
He disarms the wrath of God
Now my Father's mercies move
He receives me with His love
Mercy still reserved for me?
Can my God His wrath forbear?
Me, the chief of sinners, spare?
"Whence to me this waste of love?"
Ask my Advocate above
See the cause in Jesus' face
Now before the throne of grace
I have long withstood His grace
Long provoked Him to His face
Would not harken to His calls
Grieved Him by a thousand falls
There, for me, the Savior stands
Shows His wounds, and spreads His hands
God is love, His grace so free
Depth of mercy, there for me
I my Master have denied
I afresh have crucified
And profaned His hallowed name
Put Him to an open shame
Jesus speaks and pleads His blood
He disarms the wrath of God
Now my Father's mercies move
He receives me with His love
