Trinity Hymnal

Remember not, O God, the sins of long ago — Gorton

Original Trinity Hymnal, #417
From Psalm 79:8-13

Remember not, O God,
The sins of long ago;
In tender mercy visit us,
Distressed and humbled low.

O Lord, our Saviour, help,
And glorify thy Name;
Deliver us from all our sins
And take away our shame.

In thy compassion hear
Thy pris'ners' plaintive sigh,
And in the greatness of thy pow'r
Save those about to die.

Then, safe within thy fold
We will exalt thy Name;
Out thankful hearts with songs of joy
Thy goodness will proclaim.
