Based on Matt 15:25

1

Jesus, Redeemer, Saviour, Lord,
The weary sinner's Friend;
Come to my help, pronounce the word,
Bid my corruptions end.

2

Thou canst o'ercome this heart of mine,
Thou canst victorious prove;
For everlasting strength is thine
And everlasting love.

3

Bound down with twice ten thousand ties,
Yet let me hear thy call,
My soul in confidence shall rise,
Shall rise and break through all.

4

Speak and the deaf shall hear thy voice,
The blind his sight receive;
The dumb in songs of praise rejoice,
The heart of stone believe.

5

The Ethiop then shall change his skin;
The dead shall feel thy power;
The loathsome leper shall be clean,
And I shall sin abhor.
