Thou sinner's Advocate with God,
by Charles Wesley·1814·Meter 8.8.6
Based on 1 John 2:1
1
Thou sinner's Advocate with God,
My only trust is in thy blood,
Thou all-atoning Lamb;
The virtue of thy death impart,
Speak comfort to my drooping heart,
And tell me all thy name.
2
Speak, Lord, and let me find thee near;
O come and dissipate my fear;
Declare my sins forgiven;
Return, thou Prince of Peace; return,
Thou Comforter of all that mourn,
And guide me safe to heaven.
