Hymn 868

Behold, as we kneel before Thee

Meter: C.M.

Scripture: Ps. 69:6

1

Behold, as we kneel before Thee.

Our Master and our Friend.

O God be merciful to us

And bid us safely go.

2

The fierce judgment that we could see

Manifesting Thy pow’r

And with compassion spare our land.

When we pray unto Thee.

3

The Lord, in His mercy sav’d us

Though, ungrateful, we are

Let us listen to Thy command

And Thy mercy to have.

4

Our evils are so much abound

Every where in the land

Behold the treasure of our land

And see how ill they are.

5

O Saviour, now Thy grace we want

For a change of our heart

That we may put our trust

And seek always Thy face.
