7.7.7 [509]Lacrymae: Arthur S. Sullivan, 1872 Godfrey Thring, 1866 Heal me, O my Savior, heal; Heal me as I suppliant kneel; Heal me, and my pardon seal. Fresh the wounds that sin hath made; Hear the prayers I oft have prayed, And in mercy send me aid. Helpless, none can help me now; Cheerless, none can cheer but thou; Suppliant, Lord, to thee I bow. Thou the true Physician art; Thou, O Christ, canst health impart, Binding up the bleeding heart. Other comforters are gone; Thou canst heal, and thou alone, Thou for all my sin atone. Heal me, then, my Savior, heal; Heal me, as I suppliant kneel; To thy mercy I appeal. Amen. |
