Mercy Is Free (Hoffman)

Tho’ far I have strayed from the fold of the Lord

Tho’ oft I have slight­ed His Spir­it and Word

Yet hum­bled

re­pent­ant

to Je­sus I flee

Knowing that His won­drous grace

Can save ev­en me.

Wonderful love—flow­ing so free!

There is grace and mer­cy for a sin­ner like me.

Tho’ deep­ly my soul is pol­lut­ed by sin

Tho’ I am de­praved and un­ho­ly with­in

Yet trust­ing for mer­cy I come

Lord

to Thee

Knowing that Thy blood has pow­er

To save ev­en me.

O Lord! I am weak­est of all that may come

But yet in Thy bo­som of love there is room;

I know Thou wilt wel­come a sin­ner like me

Thou hast ful­ly pur­chased peace

And par­don for me.

Receive me

my Sav­ior

and save me from sin;

Remove all the guilt and de­file­ment with­in;

I’m trust­ing alone for sal­va­tion in Thee

Let Thy tend­er mer­cy fall

This mo­ment on me.
