Jesus, Redeemer of mankind,
Thy saving power display;
Thy mercy now may sinners find,
And know their gracious day.
Ah, give them, Lord, a longer space;
Nor suddenly consume;—
But let them take the proffer'd grace.
And flee the wrath to come.
O wouldst thou cast a pitying look,
All goodness as thou art,
Like that which faithless Peter's broke,
On every stony heart!
Who thee beneath their feet have trod,
And crucified afresh,
Touch with thine all-victorious blood,
And turn the stone to flesh.
Open their eyes thy cross to view,
Their ears to hear thy cries —
Sinners, the Saviour weeps for you,
For you he weeps and dies.
All the day long he meekly stands,
The rebels to receive;
And shows his wounds, and spreads his hands,
And bids you turn, and live.
---Alternative verses---
Jesus, Redeemer of mankind,
Display thy saving power;
Thy mercy let these outcasts find,
And know their gracious hour.
Open their eyes thy cross to view,
Their ears to hear thy cries —
Sinners, the Saviour weeps for thee,
For thee he weeps and dies.
All the day long he meekly stands,
His rebels to receive;
And shows his wounds, and spreads his hands,
And bids you turn, and live.
