��John Samuei, Bewley JIonsei.i. (ISll-lSTo).

SWEET is thy mercy, Lord ! Before thy mercy seat My soul, adoring, pleads thy word, And owns thy mercy sweet.

��My need, and thy desires Are all in Christ complete ; Thou hast the justice truth requires, And I thy mercy sweet.

��Where'er thy name is blest, Where'er thy people meet, There I delight in thee to rest, And find thy mercy sweet.

��Light thou my weary way, Lead thou my weary feet. That while I stay on earth I may Still find thy mercy sweet.

��Thus shall the heavenly host Hear all my songs repeat. To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, My joy, thy mercy sweet.
