Father Of Mercies, Send Thy Grace

Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13656 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Father of mercies, send Thy grace All powerful from above To form in our obedient souls The image of Thy love. 2 O may our sympathizing breasts That generous pleasure know Kindly to share in others’ joy, And weep for others’ woe! 3 When the most helpless sons of grief In low distress are laid, Soft be our hearts their pains to feel, And swift our hands to aid. 4 So Jesus looked on dying men, When throned above the skies, And ’midst th’embraces of His God He felt compassion rise. On wings of love the Savior flew To raise us from the ground, And made the richest of His blood A balm for every wound. Languages: English Tune Title: EAGLEY
