1. Come, humble sinner, in whose breast
A thousand thoughts revolve,
Come, with your guilt and fear oppressed,
And make this last resolve;
Come, with your guilt and fear oppressed,
And make this last resolve.
2. I’ll go to Jesus, though my sin
Has like a mountain rose;
I know his courts, I’ll enter in
Whatever may oppose;
I know his courts, I’ll enter in
Whatever may oppose.
3. I’ll to the gracious King approach,
Whose sceptre pardon gives;
Perhaps he may command my touch,
And then the sinner lives;
Perhaps he may command my touch,
And then the sinner lives.
4. I can but perish if I go;
I am resolved to try;
For if I stay away I know
I must forever die;
For if I stay away I know
I must forever die.
