 Lord, for thy tender mercy’s sake is the most popular of works attributed to Richard Farrant .  It will be sung as the anthem this coming Sunday at evensong.




Lord, for thy tender mercy’s sake lay not our sins to our charge, but forgive that is past, and give us grace to amend our sinful lives: to decline from sin and incline to virtue, that we may walk in a perfect heart before thee now and evermore. Amen.

The anthem Lord, for thy tender mercy's sake, often attributed to Richard Farrant, does not appear in any source under his name before the late 18th century and is now thought to be by the elder John Hilton. - Wikipedia

Richard Farrant, Hide not thou thy face, is the introit for evensong this coming Sunday.

Hide not thou thy face from us, O Lord, and cast not off thy servant in thy displeasure; for we confess our sins unto thee, and hide not our unrighteousness. For thy mercy sake, deliver us from all our sins. (Psalm 27:10)
