O JESUS HAVE PITY ON ME A SINNER
1. I have sinned, I have wandered away Lord,
I’m ashamed I have so little faith,
yet I long to be close to you Jesus,
to experience your mercy.
Chorus:
O Jesus son of David!
Have pity on me, a sinner!
Wipe away the tears from my face Lord,
let me know your love, my God!
O comfort me, Lord Jesus,
hold me tightly in your embrace.
Never leave me to the raging storm,
hold me Lord to the end.
2. I am hungry, I’ve nothing to eat,
I’ve no job and no money at all.
I am homeless I’ve nowhere to go,
I have no one to love me.
3. There is war, there are great tribulations,
There is fear in the hearts of men
There is no peace in this world anymore,
Be with me, Jesus, I pray.
4. I have lost many relatives and friends,
I feel lonely and lost in this world.
I have no one to turn to but You,
Lord give me strength to live.
