CGS Lyrics
Verse 1
Lord in this Thy mercy's day,
Ere the time shall pass away,
On our knees we fall and pray.
Verse 2
Holy Jesus, grant us tears,
Fill us with heart-searching fears
Ere the hour of doom appears.
Verse 3
Lord, on us Thy Spirit pour,
Kneeling lowly at Thy door,
Ere it close for evermore
Verse 4
By Thy night of agony,
By Thy supplicating cry,
By Thy willingness to die.
Verse 5
By Thy tears of bitter woe,
For Jerusalem below,
Let us not Thy love forgo.
Verse 6
Judge and Saviour of our race
When we see Thee face to face,
Grant us 'neath Thy wings a place.
Verse 7
On Thy love we rest alone,
And that love will then be known
By the pardon'd round Thy throne.
