O Divine Redeemer lyrics
O Divine Redeemer lyrics
Ah! Turn me not away,
Receive me tho' unworthy;
Turn me not away,
Receive me tho' unworthy;
Hear Thou my cry,
Hear Thou my cry,
Behold, Lord, my distress!
Answer me from thy throne
Haste Thee, Lord, to mine aid,
Thy pity show in my deep anguish!
Thy pity show in my deep anguish!
Let not the sword of vengeance smite me,
Though righteous thine anger, O Lord!
Shield me in danger! O regard me!
On Thee, Lord, alone will I call!
O Divine Redeemer! O Divine Redeemer!
I pray Thee, grant me pardon,
And remember not, remember not my sins!
Forgive me, O Divine Redeemer!
I pray Thee, grant me pardon,
And remember not, remember not, O Lord, my sins!
Night gathers round my soul;
Fearful, I cry to Thee;
Come to mine aid, O Lord!
Haste Thee, Lord, haste to help me!
Hear my cry! Hear my cry!
Save me Lord in Thy mercy;
Hear my cry! Hear my cry!
O, save me, Lord!
O Divine Redeemer! O Divine Redeemer!
I pray Thee, grant me pardon,
And remember not, remember not, O Lord, my sins!
Save, in the day of retribution,
From Death shield Thou me, O my God!
O Divine Redeemer, have mercy!
Help me, my Saviour!
