Christian Hymn – tis Good To Be Merciful Hymn

Christian Worship ’tis Good To Be Merciful.

‘Tis good to weep and mourn for those,
Crushed down by Slavery’s iron hand,
And feel, while numbering o’er their woes,
Strength for the just and true to stand.

‘Tis good and true to say to those,
Who claim a right in human kind,
Mercy and Justice are your foes,
And they shall certain triumph find.

‘Tis good-’tis blessed, to say to all,
Arise, to help the wretched slave,
Upon your God for courage call,
And in his strength go forth and save.

Lord! this is what we seek to do;
Grant us thy grace to do it well;
Help us thy glory to pursue,
And of thy promises to tell.
