Hymnal: Voices of Praise #231 (1883) Lyrics: 1 God of mercy throned on high,
Listen from Thy lofty seat;
Hear, O hear our humble cry,
Guide, O guide our wand'ring feet.
2 Young and erring travellers, we
All our dangers do not know;
Scarcely fear the stormy sea,
Hardly feel the tempest blow.
3 Jesus, Lover of the young,
Cleanse us with Thy blood divine;
Ere the tide of sin grow strong,
Save us, keep us, make us Thine!
4 Let us ever hear Thy voice;
Ask Thy counsel every day;
Saints and angels will rejoice,
If we walk in Wisdom's way.
5 Saviour, give us faith, and pour
Hope and love on every soul:
Hope, till time shall be no more;
Love, while endless ages roll.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ELEANOR
God of mercy throned on high
