Heav'n has confirm'd the great decree

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and Prayers, for Public and Private Worship #401 (1845) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Heav'n has confirm'd the great decree That Adam's race must die: One gen'ral ruin sweeps them down, And low in dust they lie. 2 Ye living men, the tomb survey, Where you must quickly dwell. Hark how the awful summons sounds In ev'ry fun'ral knell! 3 Once you must die, and once for all; The solemn purport weigh; For know, that heav'n and hell are hung On that important day. 4 Those eyes, so long in darkness veil'd, Must wake the Judge to see; And ev'ry word, and ev'ry thought Must pass his scrutiny. 5 O may I in the Judge behold My Savior and my Friend, And far beyond the reach of death With all his saints ascend!
