Lord of Mercy and of Might

Lord of mer­cy and of might

Of man­kind the life and light

Maker

teac­her

in­fi­nite;

Jesus

hear and save!

Who

when sin’s tre­men­dous doom

Gave cre­ation to the tomb

Didst not scorn the vir­gin’s womb

Jesus

hear and save!

Strong Cre­at­or

Sav­ior mild

Humbled to a mor­tal child

Captive

beat­en

bound

re­viled;

Jesus

hear and save!

Throned above ce­les­ti­al things

Borne aloft on an­gels’ wings

Lord of lords and King of kings;

Jesus

hear and save!

Who shalt yet re­turn from high

Robed in might and ma­jes­ty

Hear us! Help us when we cry!

Jesus

hear and save!

Soon to come to earth again

Judge of an­gels and of men

Hear us now

and hear us then;

Jesus

hear and save!
