Author: Frederick William Foster Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #746 (1995) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Scripture: Hebrews 13:8 Lyrics: 1 Since we, though unworthy,
through electing grace,
‘mid your ransomed people
have obtained a place,
Lord, may we be faithful
to our cov'nant found,
to you, as our shepherd,
and your flock fast bound.
2 While we, deeply humbled,
own we’re oft to blame,
this remains our comfort,
you are still the same.
In you all the needy
have a friend most dear,
whose love and forbearance
unexampled are.
3 Hear then, dear Lord Jesus,
hear our earnest prayer,
grant your loving mercy,
keep us in your care.
All that is displeasing
unto you, forgive;
more to your name’s glory
may we henceforth live.
