Invoking Compassion. 1 O GOD! whose dread and dazzling brow Love never yet forsook, On those who seek thy presence now, 2 For many a frail and erring heart 3 Yet, pleased the humble prayer to hear, And kind to all that live, Thou, when thou seest the contrite tear, Art ready to forgive. 4 Lord, aid us with thy heavenly grace In mercy view our erring race, 1 WELCOME, delightful morn!
