A Bowed Heart I Bring
Father, in an instant you can dissolve me in your terror
But the triumph of your love and mercy you forgive my error
Through my fault, through my most grievous fault
Have I failed to honor and to thee exalt
Careless in thoughts, deeds and failure to perform,
Your tenderness and great love I scorn
All of Your words and deeds out of loving me, nothing sparing
Turn, turn, turn me by your Spirit from my cold hearts not caring
Jesus, son of the living God have mercy on me a sinner
Adams son I fail, to thee I confess, and eat your life-giving dinner
How gracious, how loving, and tender, with great sorrow and care:
Jerusalem, how I have longed to gather you as a hen gathers her chicks, and spare
Lamb of God, loved by the Father and us most
Shepard, with irresistible love you draw me close
Sadness and Tears, I see you weep
For Lazarus your friend overflowing love steeped
Care and love you want of me, to the hurting and poor
To be lovers of men, to be like You more
A living sacrifice, bowed heart I bring
Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord of Hosts we sing
Father, in an instant you can dissolve me in your terror
But the triumph of your love and mercy you forgive my error
Through my fault, through my most grievous fault
Have I failed to honor and to thee exalt
Careless in thoughts, deeds and failure to perform,
Your tenderness and great love I scorn
All of Your words and deeds out of loving me, nothing sparing
Turn, turn, turn me by your Spirit from my cold hearts not caring
Jesus, son of the living God have mercy on me a sinner
Adams son I fail, to thee I confess, and eat your life-giving dinner
How gracious, how loving, and tender, with great sorrow and care:
Jerusalem, how I have longed to gather you as a hen gathers her chicks, and spare
Lamb of God, loved by the Father and us most
Shepard, with irresistible love you draw me close
Sadness and Tears, I see you weep
For Lazarus your friend overflowing love steeped
Care and love you want of me, to the hurting and poor
To be lovers of men, to be like You more
A living sacrifice, bowed heart I bring
Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord of Hosts we sing
