Be It According to Thy Word

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal #400 (1999) Meter: 8.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 Be it according to Thy word, Merciful unto all, O Lord. Be merciful to me: Avert the wrath I deprecate, Nor crush me with Thy judgments weight, Who would return to Thee, Who would return to Thee. 2 Thy wrath shall not forever last, If pained at my pollutions past, I groan to be made clean: And lo, I now with grief confess My inward parts are wickedness. And all my life is sin, And all my life is sin. 3 I have mine idols multiplied, Before the shrine of self and pride With vile devotion fell; Followed where'er the tempter led, And by each beastly, devilish deed Debased my soul to hell, Debased my soul to hell. 4 My heart was hardened from Thy fear, Thy warning voice I would not hear. But cast Thy words behind: Yet for my Saviour's sake forgive; And in Thy mercy's arms receive Our whole apostate kind, Our whole apostate kind. AMEN.
