Pity Lord! this child of clay,
Who can only weep and pray—
Only on thy love depend:
Thou who art the sinner’s Friend,
Thou, the sinner's only plea—
Jesus, Saviour, pity me!—
From thy flock, a straying lamb,
Tender Shepherd, though I am;
Now, upon the mountain cold,
Lost, I long to gain the fold,
And within thine arms to be:
Jesus, Saviour, pity me!
Oh, where stillest streams are poured,
In green pastures lead me, Lord!
Bring me back, where angels sound
Joy to the poor wanderer found:
Evermore my Shepherd be:
Jesus, Saviour, pity me!
