Only Hope

Depth of mercy, can there be

Mercy still reserved for me,

Can my God, your wrath forbear,

Me, the chief of sinners, spare

It's my only hope,

You're my only hope,

It's my only hope of Heaven,

At the cross forgiven

I have long withstood your grace,

King, provoked you to your face,

Would not harken to your calls,

Grieved you by a thousand falls,

It's my only hope,

You're my only hope,

It's my only hope of Heaven,

At the cross forgiven

There for me the Savior stands,

Shows his wounds and spreads His hands,

Face to face before the Son

And like Isaiah I'm undone

Depth of mercy, vast and free,

So much deeper than the sea,

God of love, you heard my cry,

Now into your open arms I fly

It's my only hope,

You're my only hope,

It's my only hope of Heaven,

At the cross forgiven
