Wilt Thou forgive that sin where I
begun,
Which was my sin, though it
were done before?
Wilt Thou forgive that sin through
which I run,
And do run still, though still
I do deplore?
When Thou hast
done, Thou has not done,
For I have more.
Whilt Thou forgive that sin which I
have won
Others to sin and made my sin
their door?
Wilt Thou forgive that sin which I
did shun
A year, or two, but wallowed
in a score?
When
Thou hast done, Thou hast not done,
For I have more.
I have a sin of fear, that when I have
spun
My last thread, I shall perish
on the shore;
Swear by thyself that at my death
Thy Son
Shall shine as He shines now,
and heretofore;
And
having done that, Thou hast done,
I fear no more.
I have a sin of fear, that when I have
spun
My last thread, I shall perish
on the shore;
Swear by thyself that at my death
Thy Son
Shall shine as He shines now,
and heretofore;
And
having done that, Thou hast done,
I fear no more. |
