I remember that the song starts out: By the crowd of worshippers, sorry for their sins... I'm looking for the lyrics.

"NEITHER DO I CONDEMN THEE"

BY THE CROWD OF WORSHIPPERS, SORRY FOR THEIR SINS,
WAS A POOR WANDER-ER RUDELY BROUGHT IN, SCRIBES CAME AND
PHARISEE'S ANXIOUS TO SEE, WHAT THE MEEK NAZARENES VERDICT
WOULD BE.

CHORUS:

NEITHER DO I CONDEMN THEE, PRECIOUS WORDS DIVINE, FROM THE LIPS OF MERCY, LIKE THE SEETEST CHIMES. WONDERFUL WORDS OF JESUS. SING THEM O'RE AND O'RE, NEITHER DO I CONDEMN THEE,
GO AND SIN NO MORE

THEY TOLD OF HER WANDERINGS, MAKING EACH FLAW, SPOKE OF HER
PUNISHMENT, QUOT-ING THE LAW, WRITING UPON THE GROUND
SADLY AND SLOW, BUT SAID HE UNHEEDINGLY,HEAD BENDING LOW,
NEITHER DO I CONDEMN THEE,GO AND SIN NO MORE

REPEAT CHORUS:

STILL CRIED THE PHARISEE'S PRAY MASTER PRAY, WHAT SHALL WE
DO WITH HER, WHAT DOTH THOU SAY, THEN SAID HE REBUKINGLY,
LET THE FIRST STONE, COME FROM THE SINLESS HANDS, HENCE AND ALONE

REPEAT CHORUS:

CHEEKS FLUSHING WITH THE SHAME, TURNING ABOUT, AND FROM HIS
PRESENCE, WALKING SLOWLY OUT, THEN SAW WE STANDING THERE
HEAD BENDING LOW, HE WHO THE WORLD DESPISED, BADE HER SIN NO MORE

REPEAT CHORUS:

SPOKE HE MOST TENDERLY, PRAY WOMAN PRAY, HAST THOU NO ACCUSERS, NAY MASTER NAY, NEITHER DO I CONDEMN THEE,
SOUL SICK AND SORE, GO FORTH, I PARDON THEE,
GO AND SIN NO MORE

REPEAT CHORUS:

This is a reworking of an 1898 song by Lida M. Keck and J. M. Black. The song originally had five verses.

1 By the proud worshippers,
Scorned for her sin,
Was the poor wanderer
Rudely brought in.
Scribes came and Pharisees,
Eager to see,
What the meek Nazarene,
Verdict would be.

Refrain:
“Neither do I condemn thee,”
Precious words divine!
Falling from lips of mercy,
Like the sweetest chime.
Wonderful words of Jesus!
Sing them o’er and o’er,
“Neither do I condemn thee,
Go, and sin no more.”

2 Told of her wanderings,
Marking each flaw,
Spoke they of punishment,
Quoting the law.
Sat He unheedingly,
Head bowing low,
Writing the ground upon,
Sadly and slow. [Refrain]

3 Still cried the Pharisees,
“Pray, Master, pray,
What shall we do with her
What dost Thou say?”
Spoke He rebukingly,
“Let the first stone,
Come from a sinless hand,
And thence alone.” [Refrain]

4 Cheeks flushing red with shame,
Turned each about,
And from His presence went
Silently out.
Then saw He standing there,
Head bending low,
Her whom the world despised,
Saw her tears flow. [Refrain]

5 Spoke He most tenderly,
“Pray, woman, pray,”
“Hast thou accusers none?”
“Nay, Master, nay,”
“Neither do I condemn,
Soul sick and sore,
Go, for I pardon thee,
Go, sin no more.” [Refrain]
