Jesus, Hear My Humble Pleading

Jesus

hear my hum­ble plead­ing

Lowly at Thy feet I lie;

Thou for such art in­ter­ced­ing

At the Fa­ther’s throne on high.

Friend of sin­ners

bless­èd Sav­ior

Let me lin­ger ’neath Thy cross;

Seeking there Thy gra­cious fa­vor

All things else I count but loss.

Near the mercy-seat abid­ing

Let my soul Thy glo­ry see;

In Thy grace alone con­fid­ing

Perfect peace I find in Thee.

Tune my heart to sing Thy prais­es

Till I join the heav’n­ly throng

Which through end­less ag­es rais­es

Sweetest praise with harp and song.
