250. Reviewing the Mercies of God

1 Fain would my soul with wonder trace
Thy mercies, O my God;
And tell the riches of thy grace,
The merits of thy blood.

2 With Israel's King, my heart would cry,
While I review thy ways,
Tell my, my Savior, who am I,
That I should see thy face?

3 Form'd by thine hand, and form'd for thee,
I would be ever thine:
My Savior, make my spirit free,
With beams of mercy shine.

4 Fain would my soul with rapture dwell
On thy redeeming grace;
O for a thousand tongues to tell
My dear Redeemer's praise.
