Mercy, can I have?

Mercy, can there be?

From this hell of pain

Mercy can there be?

In my youth I left

The path that led to Him,

Roved in the sin of vanity,

Loitered in the sin of joy,

Now when in the age,

Laughter but an annoy,

Every loud a laugh

Now is a woeful cry:

Mercy, can I have?

Mercy, can there be?
