Savior, to Thy mercy seat Humbly trusting, I draw near; Now my waiting spirit meet, Lend to me Thy gracious ear. Thou canst cleanse the vilest stain, Now apply Thy precious blood; Let no spot of guilt remain, Wash me in the crimson flood. Savior, hear my earnest prayer, Now Thy great compassion show; Let my contrite spirit share All Thy mercy can bestow.
