J. Marckant (Old Version, 1560).

O LORD, turn not away thy face
From him that lies prostrate,
Lamenting sore his sinful life
Before thy mercy-gate;

2 Which gate thou openest wide to those
That do lament their sin:
Shut not that gate against me, Lord,
But let me enter in.

3 And call me not to mine account
How I have lived here;
For then I know right well, O Lord,
How vile I shall appear.

4 So come I to thy mercy gate,
Where mercy doth abound,
Requiring mercy for my sin
To heal my deadly wound.

5. Mercy, good Lord, mercy I ask,
This is the total sum;
For mercy, Lord, is all my suit:
Lord, let thy mercy come.
