Author: Benjamin Beddome Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Sinners in vain expect Among the just t’appear; God’s threatening word and flaming sword Forbid an entrance there. 2 Depart, ye hardened race, Heav’n’s lofty gates are barred; Nor can you force a passage through, Or bribe the watchful guard. 3 Time was that Jesus spread His kind inviting arms; But you rejected all His calls, And slighted all His charms. 4 The Savior you despised, Now dooms you down to hell; There with confounding horror seized, ln fiery deeps to dwell. 5 How will your hearts endure? How can your hands be strong, When He shall vengeance take, to whom All vengeance doth belong. Used With Tune: SCHUMANN Text Sources: Hymns Adapted to Public Worship (London: Burton & Briggs, 1818)

This Is the Day of Rest

Author: J. Ellerton Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 This is the day of rest; Our failing strength renew; On weary brain and troubled breast Shed Thou Thy fresh’ning dew. 2 This is the day of peace; Thy peace our spirits fill; Bid Thou the blasts of discord cease, The waves of strife be still. 3 This is the day of prayer; Let earth to heav’n draw near; Lift up our hearts to seek Thee there; Come down to meet us here. 4 This is the best of days; Send forth Thy quick’ning breath, And wake dead souls to love and praise, O Vanquisher of death!
