Oh God, your patience is marvelous. But how much more marvelous is your grace which in spite of my wretchedness invites me to you. Oh, Lord, invited by your word and encouraged by your grace, I come. Extend mercy to me, oh heavenly father, and display the riches of your grace and the power of your son's blood. For surely, if such crimson sins as mine may be made white as snow and as wool, And if such a revolter as I am be brought to eternal glory, earth must be filled with wonder and heaven with praise, and the greatest sinner may cheerfully apply for pardon if I, the chief of sinners find it. Amen. Philip Doddridge.
