Verse
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 affection and bound my soul fast
Without they sweet mercy I could not live here
sin would reduce me to utter despare
but through thy free goodness my spirits revived
and he that first made me so keeps me alive
Thy mercy is more than a match for my heart
which wonders to feel it's heartless depart
dissolved by thy goodness I fall to the ground
and weep for the praise of the mercy I've found
Great father of mercies,thy goodness I own
and the covenant love of thy crucified son
all praise to the spirit whose whisper divine
seals mercy and pardon and righteousness mine
