Thy Lovingkindness, Lord, Is Good and Free

Thy lov­ing­kind­ness

Lord

is good and free

In ten­der mer­cy turn Thou un­to me;

Hide not Thy face from me in my dis­tress

In mer­cy hear my pray­er

Thy serv­ant bless.

Needy and sor­row­ful

to Thee I cry;

Let Thy sal­va­tion set my soul on high;

Then I will sing and praise Thy ho­ly name

My thank­ful song Thy mer­cy shall pro­claim.

With joy the meek shall see my soul re­stored;

Your heart shall live

ye saints that seek the Lord;

He helps the needy and re­gards their cries

Those in dis­tress the Lord will not des­pise.

Let Heav’n ab­ove His grace and glo­ry tell

Let earth and sea and all that in them dwell;

Salvation to His peo­ple God will give

And they that love His name with Him shall live.
