665. Pass Me Not, O Gentle Saviour

1 Pass me not, O gentle Saviour,
hear my humble cry;
while on others thou art calling,
do not pass me by.
[Refrain:]
Saviour, Saviour,
hear my humble cry;
while on others thou art calling,
do not pass me by.

2 Let me at thy throne of mercy
find a sweet relief,
kneeling there in deep contrition;
help my unbelief. [Refrain]

3 Trusting only in thy merit,
would I seek thy face;
heal my wounded, broken spirit,
save me by thy grace. [Refrain]

4 Thou the spring of all my comfort,
more than life to me,
whom have I on earth beside thee?
Whom in heaven but thee. [Refrain]
