11238. 'Tis All Too Late

1 "’Tis all too late," the sinner cries,
Deluded by his sin,
Nor yet believes His Savior died
A sinful world to win.

2 Lord! turn us to Thy cross, that so
This dark delusion break;
Thy Spirit work in us to know
Salvation for Thy sake.

3 There is no mystery in faith,
To know, obey, and love,
The word that marks our earthly path,
And tells of Heaven above.

4 The mystery’s in sin, whereby
We hide us from Thy face:
And full of self and woe, deny
The richness of Thy grace.

5 Have mercy, Lord, that we unlearn
This treacherous mystery,
And deeply own the cross, discern
The hope that rests in Thee.
