Author: Rev. Johnson Oatman, Jr. Hymnal: Hymns of the Kingdom #21 (1905) First Line: There's a place where weary mortals Refrain First Line: Yes, I love the mercy seat Lyrics: 1 There’s a place where weary mortals
May find a rest complete,
Where the earth and heaven mingles,
‘Tis at the mercy seat.
Refrain:
Yes, I love the mercy seat;
There’s no other safe retreat;
There by faith I meet my Saviour,
At the blessed mercy seat.
2 There I take to Christ my burdens,
And cast them at His feet,
And my soul finds sweet refreshing
Down at the mercy seat. [Refrain]
3 Here my heart finds perfect cleansing,
Each part made pure and sweet,
Here I am baptized for duty,
Down at the mercy seat. [Refrain]
4 When at last this life is ended,
And I my Lord shall greet,
I shall find the gates of heaven
Beyond the mercy seat. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [There's a place where weary mortals]
I Love the Blessed Mercy Seat
