¶Lyrics / Text

1. Thy mercy, my God, is the theme of my song, The joy of my heart and the boast of my tongue; Thy free grace alone, from the first to the last, Hath won my affections and bound my soul fast. 2. Without thy free mercy I could not live here Sin soon would reduce me to utter despair; But, through thy free goodness, my spirits revive, And he that first made me, still keeps me alive. 3. Thy mercy surpasses the sin of my heart Which wonders to feel its own hardness depart, Dissolved by thy goodness, I fall to the ground And weep to the praise of the mercy I found.
