Lamentations 3:55-56

• [Lam 3:55] This My Plea

  What I am, Thine eye can see, Yet I come, O Lord, to Thee. Though my sins are crimson red, Yet for me Thy blood was shed. Refrain This my plea, my only plea: Through Thy off’ring once for me, I may cast myself on Thee, Jesus, my Redeemer. As I am, I seek Thy face, Kneeling at the door of grace; O forgive this heart of mine, Cleanse me now and seal me Thine. Refrain As I am, O blessèd Lord, I believe and trust Thy Word; Let my soul no longer roam, Take, O take the wand’rer home. Refrain Lost, but found, my sins forgiv’n, Child of God and heir of Heav’n; Lost, but found, what joy is mine! Thou dost cleanse and keep me Thine. Refrain

Lamentations 5:19

• [Lam 5:19] Great God, How Infinite Art Thou!

  Great God, how infinite art Thou! What worthless worms are we! Let the whole race of creatures bow, And pay their praise to Thee. Thy throne eternal ages stood, Ere seas or stars were made: Thou art the ever living God, Were all the nations dead. Nature and time quite naked lie To Thine immense survey, From the formation of the sky To the great burning day. Eternity, with all its years, Stands present in Thy view; To Thee there’s nothing old appears; Great God! There’s nothing new. Our lives through various scenes are drawn, And vexed with trifling cares; While Thine eternal thought moves on Thine undisturbed affairs. Great God, how infinite art Thou! What worthless worms are we! Let the whole race of creatures bow, And pay their praise to Thee.
