The lyrics ask for deliverance from sin, fear, and inner turmoil, and express awe at God's love shown through Christ's sacrifice.

Approach my soul, the mercy seat

Where Holy One and helpless meet

There fall before my Judges' feet

Thy promise is my only plea, O God


Send wings to lift the clutch of sin

You who dwell between the cherubim

From war without and fear within

Relieve the grief from the shoulders of crumbling men


O God?Pour out your mercy to me

My God, Oh what striking love to bleed.


Fashion my heart in your alchemy

With the brass to front the devil's perjury

And surefire grace my Jesus speaks

I must. I will. I do believe. O Lord.


O God?Pour out your mercy to me

My God, Oh what striking love to bleed.

O God?Pour out your mercy to me

My God, Oh what striking love to bleed.


Approach my soul, the mercy seat

Where Holy One and helpless meet

There fall before my Judges' feet

Thy promise is my only plea, O God
