  1. Sweet the moments, rich in blessing,
    Which before the cross I spend;
    Life, and health, and peace possessing,
    From the sinner's dying Friend

  2. Here I'll sit, for ever viewing
    Mercy's stream in streams of blood:
    Precious drops, my soul bedewing,
    Plead, and claim my peace with God

  3. Truly blessed is this station
    Low before His cross to lie;
    While I see divine compassion
    Beaming in His languid eye

  4. Love and grief my heart dividing,
    With my tears His feet I'll bathe;
    Constant still in faith abiding,
    Life deriving from His death

  5. Lord, in ceaseless contemplation
    Fix my thankful heart on Thee;
    Till I taste Thy full salvation,
    And Thine unveil'd glory see. Amin.
