What am I, O Thou glorious God!
And what my father�s house to Thee,
That Thou such mercies hast bestowed
On me, the chief of sinners, me!
I take the blessing from above,
And wonder at Thy boundless love.
Me in my blood Thy love passed by,
And stopped, my ruin to retrieve;
Wept o�er my soul Thy pitying eye,
Thy bowels yearned, and sounded �Live!�
Dying, I heard the welcome sound,
And pardon in Thy mercy found.
Honor, and might, and thanks, and praise,
I render to my pardoning God,
Extol the riches of Thy grace,
And spread Thy saving Name abroad,
That only name to sinners giv�n,
Which lifts poor dying worms to Heav�n.
Jesus, I bless Thy gracious power,
And all within me shouts Thy Name;
Thy Name let every soul adore,
Thy power let every tongue proclaim;
Thy grace let every sinner know,
And find with me their heaven below.
