Author: Stella May Thompson Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #10690 First Line: If I’ve wounded the heart of another today Refrain First Line: I am bowing before Thee in penitence now Lyrics: 1 If I’ve wounded the heart of another today, Or have caused a lone teardrop to fall; If I’ve turned in disdain from the helpless away, Oh! forgive, Thou blest Father of all! Refrain: I am bowing before Thee in penitence now, O compassionate Father, forgive! Thou alone with Thy peace can my spirit endow, O compassionate Father, forgive! 2 My transgressions are many, I humbly confess, But I long in Thy precepts to live; With the boon of salvation Thou only can bless, O compassionate Father, forgive! [Refrain] 3 If, when merciless sorrow o’ershadows my soul, I have sought not Thy guidance each day, But in folly have strayed where sin’s billows oft roll, Oh! forgive me, dear Father, I pray! [Refrain] 4 Tho’ I oft have neglected my duty to do, Disobeying Thy holy command, And to Thee and Thy cause I have proven untrue, With the saved I forgiven would stand.
