While Justice waves her vengeful hand

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 13 hymnals Topics: Public and national Blessings and Afflictions Lyrics: 1 While Justice waves her vengeful hand Tremendous o'er a guilty land, Almighty God, thy awful pow'r With fear and trembling we adore. 2 Where shall we fly but to thy feet? Our only refuge is thy seat; Thy seat where potent mercy pleads, And holds thy thunder from our heads. 3 While peace and plenty blest our days, Where was the tribute of our praise? Ungrateful race! how have we spent The blessings which thy goodness lent! 4 Look down, O Lord, with pitying eye; Though loud our crimes for vengeance cry, Let mercy's louder voice prevail, Nor thy long-suffering patience fail. 5 Encourag'd by thy sacred word, May we not plead thy promise, Lord; That when an humble nation mourns, Thy rising wrath to pity turns? 6 O let thy sov'reign grace impart Contrition to each rocky heart; And bid sincere repentance flow, In general, undissembled wo. 7 Fair smiling peace again restore; With plenty bless the pining poor: And may a happy, thankful land, Obedient own thy guardian hand.
