22. I'm helpless, Lord, to Thee I fly

1 I'm helpless, Lord, to Thee I fly,
In mercy hear me when I cry,
While now I urge one only plea:
Jesus of Nazareth died for me!

Refrain:
Jesus of Nazareth died for me,
Died to redeem me and set me free.
This is my hope, my only plea:
Jesus of Nazareth died for me!

2 I know Thou wilt my sins forgive,
For Thou hast bid me turn and live,
With longing heart I come to Thee:
Jesus of Nazareth died for me! [Refrain]

3 My Saviour now is lifted up,
I look to Him, my only hope,
I trust Thy word and press the plea:
Jesus of Nazareth died for me! [Refrain]

4 And now I hear Thy pard'ning voice,
That bids me in Thy love rejoice,
My soul doth triumph in the plea:
Jesus of Nazareth died for me! [Refrain]
