Description
From Depths of Woe I Cry to Thee
Author: Martin Luther (1524);
Translator: Catherine Winkworth (1863)
Tune: AUS TIEFER NOT (Luther)
From depths of woe I cry to Thee,
In trial and tribulation;
In trial and tribulation;
Bend down Thy gracious ear to me,
Lord, hear my supplication.
Lord, hear my supplication.
If Thou rememb’rest ev’ry sin,
Who then could heaven ever win
Who then could heaven ever win
Or stand before Thy presence?
Thy love and grace alone avail
To blot out my transgression;
To blot out my transgression;
The best and holiest deeds must fail
To break sin’s dread oppression.
To break sin’s dread oppression.
Before Thee none can boasting stand,
But all must fear Thy strict demand
But all must fear Thy strict demand
And live alone by mercy.
Therefore my hope is in the Lord
And not in mine own merit;
And not in mine own merit;
It rests upon His faithful Word
To them of contrite spirit
To them of contrite spirit
That He is merciful and just:
This is my comfort and my trust.
This is my comfort and my trust.
His help I wait with patience.
And though it tarry through the night
And till the morning waken,
And till the morning waken,
My heart shall never doubt His might
Nor count itself forsaken.
Nor count itself forsaken.
O Isreal, trust in God your Lord.
Born of the Spirit and the Word,
Born of the Spirit and the Word,
Now wait for His appearing.
Though great our sins, yet greater still
Is God’s abundant favor;
Is God’s abundant favor;
His hand of mercy never will
Abandon us, nor waver.
Abandon us, nor waver.
Our shepherd good and true is He,
Who will at last His Israel free
Who will at last His Israel free
From all their sin and sorrow.
