In Boundless Mercy

In bound­less mer­cy

gra­cious Lord

ap­pear

Darkness dis­pel

the hum­ble mourn­er cheer;

Vain thoughts re­move

melt down the flin­ty heart

Draw ev­ery soul to choose the bet­ter part.

Thy pre­sence fills the uni­vers­al space

Thy grace ap­pears to all the hu­man race

Oh! vis­it us with light and life di­vine

Fill ev­ery soul

for ev­ery soul is Thine.

Thou

bless­èd Je­sus

art my Lord

my Love:

Thou art my king: from Thee I would not move

Hence earth­ly charms

far

far

from me de­part

Nor seek to draw from my dear Lord my heart.

That un­cre­at­ed beau­ty

which has gained

My rav­ished heart

has all my glo­ry stained:

Thy love­li­ness my soul has pre­pos­sessed

And left no room for any oth­er guest.
