10122. God, My Father, Hear Me Pray

1 God, my Father, hear me pray,
Wash my crimson guilt away;
Wretched, helpless, lost, undone,
Hear me for Thy blessèd Son.
Lord, unnumbered sins are mine,
But eternal love is Thine.

2 God, my Savior, look on me;
All my guilt I cast on Thee!
Give my troubled spirit peace;
Bid my fears and sorrows cease.
Lord, unnumbered sins are mine,
But eternal love is Thine.

3 God, my comforter, my light,
Strengthen me with holy might;
Make Thy dwelling in my heart;
Faith and joy and hope impart.
Lord, unnumbered sins are mine,
But eternal love is Thine.

4 Blessèd, glorious Trinity!
Holy, everlasting Three!
Hear, O hear my earnest prayer!
And my soul for Heaven prepare!
Lord, unnumbered sins are mine,
But eternal love is Thine.
