Jesus, the sinner's friend

201 Federal Street. L. M.

1 Jesus, the sinner’s Friend, to Thee,
   Lost and undone, for aid I flee,
   Weary of earth, myself, and sin;
   Open Thine arms, and take me in.

2 Pity and heal my sin-sick soul;
   ’Tis Thou alone canst make me whole;
   Dark, till in me Thine image shine,
   And lost, I am, till Thou art mine.

3 At last I own it cannot be
   That I should fit myself for Thee:
   Here, then, to Thee I all resign;
   Thine is the work, and only Thine.

4 What shall I say Thy grace to move?
   Lord, I am sin, but Thou art love:
   I give up every plea beside-
   Lord, I am lost, but Thou hast died.
