Christian Worship Forgiveness.
I hear the voice of woe!
I hear a brother’s sigh!
Then let my heart with pity flow,
With tears of love, my eye.
I hear the thirsty cry!
The hungry beg for bread!
Then let my spring its stream supply,
My hand its bounty shed.
The debtor humbly sues,
Who would, but cannot pay;
And shall I lenity refuse,
Who need it every day?
And shall not wrath relent,
Touched by that humble strain,
My brother crying, I repent,
Nor will offend again?
How else, on soaring wing,
Can hope bear high my prayer,
Up to thy throne, my God, my King,
To plead for pardon there?
