����'Twas he who found me on the deathly wild, And made me heir of Heav'n, the Father's child, And day by day, whereby my soul may live, Gives me his grace of pardon, and will give.

great Absolver, grant my soul may wear The lowliest garb of penitence and prayer, That in the Father's courts my glorious dress May be the garment of thy righteousness.

Yea, thou wilt answer for me, righteous Lord ; Thine all the merits, mine the great reward ; Thine the sharp thorns, and mine the golden crown ; Mine the life won, and thine the life laid down.

Nought can I bring, dear Lord, for all I owe, Yet let my full heart what it can bestow ; Like Mary's gift, let my devotion prove, Forgiven greatly, how I greatly love.
