"And make Thy pardoning mercy known, / And seal it on my heart."
Metaphor in Context
Oft hast Thou, Lord, in tender love,
Prevented my request,
And sent Thy Spirit from above
An unexpected Guest:
Oft when my prayer was scarce begun
Thou didst Thy grace impart,
And make Thy pardoning mercy known,
And seal it on my heart.
Prevented my request,
And sent Thy Spirit from above
An unexpected Guest:
Oft when my prayer was scarce begun
Thou didst Thy grace impart,
And make Thy pardoning mercy known,
And seal it on my heart.
