I knew not what I did; But now my tears are vain; For I the Lord have slain. “I freely all forgive; This blood is for thy ransom paid, I'll die that thou mays't live." -7 Thus, while his death my sin displays In all its blackest hue; (Such is the mystery of grace) It seals my pardon too.

Their conversation cloys : Their vain amours and empty stuff: But I can ne'er enjoy enough Of thy best company, my Lord, thou life of all my joys. 2 When he begins to tell his love, Through every vein my passions move, The captives of his tongue : In midnight shades, on frosty ground, I could attend the pleasing sound, Nor should I feel December cold, nor think the darkness long. 3 There while I hear my Saviour God Count o'er the sins (a heavy load) He bore upon the tree, Inward I blush with secret shame, And weep, and love, and bless the name, That knew no guilt nor grief his own, but baro it all for me. |
