A beggar poor, at mercy’s door, Lies such a wretch as I; Thou know’st my need is great indeed, Lord hear me when I cry. With guilt beset and deep in debt, For pardon, Lord, I pray; O let Thy love sufficient prove, To take my sins away. A wicked heart is no small part, Of my distress and shame; Let sovereign grace its crimes efface, Through Jesus’ blessed name. My darkened mind I daily find, Is prone to go astray; Lord on it shine with light divine, And guide it in Thy way. My stubborn will opposes still, Thy wise and holy hand; Thy Spirit send to make it bend, To Thy supreme command. Affections wild by sin defiled, Oft hurry me away; Lord bring them home nor let them roam, From Christ the Living Way. Before Thy face I’ve told my case; Lord help and mercy send; Pity my soul and make me whole, And love me to the end.

Come, ye sinners, poor and wretched, Weak and wounded, sick and sore. Jesus ready stands to save you, Full of pity, love, and pow'r. He is able, He is able, He is willing, doubt no more. He is able, He is able, He is willing, doubt no more. Come, ye needy, come and welcome God's free bounty, glorify. True belief and true repentance, Every grace that brings you nigh. Without money, without money, Come to Jesus Christ and buy. Without money, without money, Come to Jesus Christ and buy. Come, ye weary, heavy laden, Lost and broken by the fall. If you tarry 'til you're better, You will never come at all. Not the righteous, not the righteous, Sinners Jesus came to call. Not the righteous, not the righteous, Sinners Jesus came to call. Lo th'incarnate God ascended Pleads the merit of His blood. Venture on Him, venture wholly; Let no other trust intrude. None but Jesus, none but Jesus Can do helpless sinners good. None but Jesus, none but Jesus Can do helpless sinners good!

I believe in the Son, I believe in the risen One. I believe I overcome By the power of His blood. Amen, Amen! I’m alive, I’m alive because He lives. Amen, Amen! Let my song join the one that never ends, Because He lives! I was dead in the grave, I was covered in sin and shame. I heard mercy call my name; He rolled the stone away! Amen, Amen! I’m alive, I’m alive because He lives. Amen, Amen! Let my song join the one that never ends. Because He lives, I can face tomorrow. Because He lives, every fear is gone. I know He holds my life, my future in His hands! Amen, Amen! I’m alive, I’m alive because He lives. Amen, Amen! Let my song join the one that never ends, Because He lives!
