126. Jesus, my Lord! Behold at length the time

Jesus, my Lord! Behold at length the time

When I resolve to turn away from crime.

Oh pardon me, Jesus: Thy mercy I implore;

I will never more offend Thee;

Since my poor soul Thy precious Blood has cost

Suffer it not forever to be lost.

Oh pardon me, Jesus: Thy mercy I implore;

I will never more offend Thee; no, never more.

Kneeling in tears, behold me at Thy feet

Like Magdalene, forgiveness I entreat.

Oh pardon me, Jesus: Thy mercy I implore;

I will never more offend Thee;
