O Lord, in thee is all my trust.<br>
Give ear unto my woeful cries.<br>
Refuse me not, that am unjust,<br>
but bowing down thy heav’nly eyes,<br>
behold how I do still lament<br>
my sins wherein I thee offend.<br>
O Lord, for them shall I be shent,<br>
sith thee to please I do intend?
<br>
<br>
No, no, not so! Thy will is bent<br>
to deal with sinners in thine ire:<br>
but when in heart they shall repent<br>
thou grant’st with speed their just desire.<br>
To thee therefore still shall I cry,<br>
to wash away my sinful crime.<br>
Thy blood, O Lord, is not yet dry,<br>
but that it may help me in time.
<br>
<br>
Haste now, O Lord, haste now, I say,<br>
to pour on me the gifts of grace<br>
that when this life must flit away<br>
in heav’n with thee I may have place<br>
where thou dost reign eternally<br>
with God which once did down thee send,<br>
where angels sing continually.<br>
To thee be praise, world without end. Amen.

O Lord, in thee is all my trust.
Give ear unto my woeful cries.
Refuse me not, that am unjust,
but bowing down thy heav’nly eyes,
behold how I do still lament
my sins wherein I thee offend.
O Lord, for them shall I be shent,
sith thee to please I do intend?

No, no, not so! Thy will is bent
to deal with sinners in thine ire:
but when in heart they shall repent
thou grant’st with speed their just desire.
To thee therefore still shall I cry,
to wash away my sinful crime.
Thy blood, O Lord, is not yet dry,
but that it may help me in time.

Haste now, O Lord, haste now, I say,
to pour on me the gifts of grace
that when this life must flit away
in heav’n with thee I may have place
where thou dost reign eternally
with God which once did down thee send,
where angels sing continually.
To thee be praise, world without end. Amen.
