Alas, My God, My Sins Are Great (EN 888)

EN 888 Alas, My God, My Sins Are Great

Ps.38.4

Versi Version 1

1

Alas! my God! my sins are great,

My conscience doth upbraid me;

And now I find that at my strait

No man hath power to aid me.

2

And fled I hence, in my despair,

In some lone spot to hide me,

My griefs would still be with me there,

Thy hand still hold and guide me.

3

Nay, Thee I seek—I merit naught,

Yet pity and restore me;

Be not Thy wrath, just God, my lot,

Thy Son hath suffered for me.

4

If pain and woe must follow sin,

Then be my path still rougher,

Here spare me not; if Heaven I win,

On earth I gladly suffer.

5

But curb my heart, forgive my guilt,

Make Thou my patience firmer,

For they must miss the good Thou wilt,

Who at Thy teachings murmur.

6

Then deal with me as seems Thee best,

Thy grace will help me bear it,

If but at last I see Thy rest,

And with my Savior share it.
