DIVINE MEDITATIONS On the Last Words of Our SAVIOUR , And the Two THIEVES upon the Cross .

Jesus Nazaritae Rex Judaeorum . Behold , O God , IN RI vers of my Tears , I Come to thee , Bow down thy Blessed Ears To hear me , Wretch , O thou whose Eyes to sleep Didst never close Behold a Sinner Weep : Let then O GOD , MY GOD , my Faults , though great , Be heal'd W ithin thy glorious Mercies Seat ; By Angels let my spirit to H eaven be brought , Thou Lord Remember est th Y ne If thou beest sought . I Co me not Lord wit H any o the r Merit Than wh at I by my S A viour Ch rist inherit ; Be th en his Wound S my Balm , his St ri pes my Bliss , My Crown his Th ornes , my dea T h be lo st in his : And th ou my bles T Redeemer , Sa viour , God , Quit my Ac co unts , with H old thy ve ngefull Rod ; O beg for me my H O pes on T hee are set , And Chri st forgi V e as well as pay t h e Debt ; The live in g Font , the li F e , the Wa y I know , And but to thee O whither s hould I goe ? All o th er Helps a R e vain , grant e thine to me , For in th y Cross my S aving Hea l th must be : O hear K en then wh A t I with F aith implore ; Least sin ing Sin K ' e me th a t I rise no more ; And me D efe N d that I may n ever sin , When thou dost c om e let M e be raise d then , To liv e with th E e , sweet Jes us say Amen .
