The Friend of Sinners. (485) Jesus! thou art the sinner's Friend; As such I look to thee; Now, in the fullness of thy love, O Lord! remember me. 2 Remember thy pure word of grace, -- Remember Calvary; Remember all thy dying groans, And, then, remember me. 3 Thou wondrous Advocate with God! I yield myself to thee; While thou art sitting on thy throne, Dear Lord! remember me. 4 Lord! I am guilty -- I am vile, But thy salvation's free; Then, in thine all abounding grace, Dear Lord! remember me. Richard Burnham, 1783, a.
