Low at thy pierced feet,

by James Stephens

Representative text

As printed in The Church Hymnal (1941), no. 239 — the newest hymnal carrying it.

Verse 1

Low at thy pierced feet, Saviour of all, Helpless and sorrowful Prostrate I fall. O cast me not away, Forgive my sin this day, Forgive my sin, All, all my sin.

Verse 2

Sinful my life hath been, Unclean, unclean; All my iniquity Thine eye hath seen; Cleanse thou my soul today, Wash all my sin away In thine own blood, In thine own blood.

Verse 3

By all thy grief and pain, Forgive me now; Before thy cross in shame Lowly I bow. Lord, let that blood of thine Wash now this soul of mine; Wash now this soul, Wash now this soul.

Verse 4

Thou didst for me endure Dread Calvary; Sin's punishment and shame All, all for me. On thee my guilt was laid, By thee my dept was paid, To set me free, To set me free.

Verse 5

Lord, I accept thee now, Accept thou me; I have delayed too long, And grieved thee. By all thy love to me, I give myself to thee; Make me thine own, All, all thine own.
