''Hearken, O Lord, have mercy upon us;'' | ''Hearken, O Lord, have mercy upon us;'' | ||
''For we have sinnèd against thee.'' | ''For we have sinnèd against thee.'' | ||
1. To thee, Redeemer, King of highest heaven, | |||
Lift we our eyes in grief and deep abasement: | |||
Listen, O Saviour, to our supplications. | |||
2. Head of the Corner, right hand of the Father, | |||
Way of salvation, gate of life eternal, | |||
Wash thou away the stain of our offences. | |||
3. Lord, we beseech thee, from thy throne of glory | |||
Bow down thine ear to hear our cry of sorrow, | |||
Look down in mercy on our sore transgressions. | |||
4. All our misdoings now we lay before thee, | |||
Unveil with contrite heart each guilty secret: | |||
Saviour, in pity grant us thy forgiveness. | |||
5. Guiltless, a captive taken unresisting, | |||
By false accusers brought to condemnation, | |||
Save, Lord, and help the souls thou hast redeemed. | |||
