2 My crimes, though great, can not surpass

The power and glory of thy grace;

Great God, thy nature hath no bound;

So let thy pardoning love be found.

3 O, wash my soul from every sin,

And make my guilty conscience clean;

Here, on my heart, the burden lies,

And past offenses pain my eyes.

4 My lips, with shame, my sins confess,

Against thy law, against thy grace;
