Oh What Amazing Horrors Seize

Author: Benjamin Beddome, 1717-1795 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Oh what amaz­ing hor­rors seize Lyrics: 1 Oh what amaz­ing hor­rors seize The sin­ner at his death! With what re­luct­ance and des­pair, He yields his part­ing breath. 2 He gives a groan, and straight is gone Where woe­ful spir­its dwell; A vic­tim to eter­nal wrath, The quench­less flames of hell. 3 Some drops of this tre­men­dous storm Might fall at times be­fore; But now it bursts up­on his head, In one re­lent­less show­er. 4 Oh may I, ere it be too late, To Jesus’ cross re­pair; From thence de­rive a cheer­ing hope, And find sal­va­tion there. 5 Supported by His pow­er­ful grace And sprin­kled with His blood, I’ll rest se­cure from ev­ery ill, Nor dread an an­gry God.

The Castle Of The Human Heart

Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 14 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The castle of the human heart Strong in its native sin, Is guarded well, in every part, By him who dwells within. 2 For Satan there, in arms, resides, And calls the place his own; With care against assaults provides, And rules, as on a throne. 3 Each traitor thought on him, as chief, In blind obedience waits; And pride, self-will, and unbelief, Are posted at the gates. 4 Thus Satan for a season reigns, And keeps his goods in peace; The soul is pleased to wear his chains, Nor wishes a release. 5 But Jesus, stronger far than he, In His appointed hour Appears, to set His people free From the usurper’s power. 6 "This heart I bought with blood," He says, "And now it shall be Mine." His voice the strong one armed dismays, He knows he must resign. 7 In spite of unbelief and pride, And self, and Satan’s art; The gates of brass fly open wide, And Jesus wins the heart. 8 The rebel soul that once withstood The Savior’s kindest call; Rejoices now, by grace subdued, To serve Him with her all. Used With Tune: CLAUDIUS Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London, W. Oliver, 1779), Book 1
