Psalms of Grace ‎#38c

38c. In Thy Wrath

1 In Thy wrath and hot displeasure,
Chasten not Thy servant, LORD;
Let Thy mercy, without measure,
Help and peace to me afford.

2 Heavy is my tribulation,
Sore my punishment has been,
Broken by Thy indignation,
I am troubled by my sin.

3 With my burden of transgression
Heavy laden, overborne,
Humbled low I make confession,
For my folly now I mourn.

4 Weak and wounded, I implore Thee;
LORD, to me Thy mercy show;
All my prayer is now before Thee,
All my trouble You do know.

5 Darkness gathers, foes assail me,
But I answer not a word;
All my friends desert and fail me,
Only You my cry hast heard.
