Lyrics

1. With contrite heart I come to Thee, Thou blessed throne of grace; Thou Jesus Christ, God's only Son, died my sins to efface. These tidings bring to all mankind: There's grace for you and me; there's open now a door of grace, O soul, to make you free.
2. As beggar I now come to Thee, I've naught to bring but guilt, but if with contrite heart I come, then pardon me Thou wilt. Though nothing worthy I can bring, lamentable I stand and cry: "O Lord, save Thou my soul; extend to me Thy hand."
3. Who in repentance comes to Thee is never turned away, so now I humbly Thee entreat, dear Lord: "Hear me, I pray." O Jesus Christ, Thy precious blood from sin delivers me, I plunge within and now I am again at peace with Thee.
Refrain: Reveal then clearly, Lord, Thy countenance to me; extend Thy grace that I may now be reconciled to Thee.
