Hear Us, Almighty Lord (#473)
Refrain
Hear us, almighty Lord, show us your mercy;
Sinners we stand here before you.
Verse 1
Jesus our Savior, Lord of all the nations,
Christ our Redeemer, hear the prayers we offer.
Spare us and save us, comfort us in sorrow.
Refrain
Verse 2
Word of the Father, keystone of God’s building,
Source of our gladness, gateway to the Kingdom,
Free us in mercy from the sins that bind us.
Refrain
Verse 3
God of compassion, Lord of might and splendor,
Graciously listen, hear our cries of anguish.
Touch us and heal us where our sins have wounded.
Refrain
Verse 4
Humbly confessing that we have offended,
Stripped of illusions, naked in our sorrow,
Pardon, Lord Jesus, those your blood has ransomed.
Refrain
Verse 5
Innocent captive, you were led to slaughter,
Sentenced by sinners when they brought false witness.
Keep from damnation those your death has rescued.
