Hypocrisy exposed
Hymnal: Doctor Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David #95 (1787) Topics: God the judge; Hypocrites and hypocrisy; Incarnation and sacrifice of Christ; Judgment Day; Obedience better than sacrifice; Profession false; Saints Reward at last; Sins of tongue; God the judge; Hypocrites and hypocrisy; Incarnation and sacrifice of Christ; Judgment Day; Obedience better than sacrifice; Profession false; Saints Reward at last; Sins of tongue First Line: The Lord, the Judge his churches warns Lyrics: 1 The Lord, the Judge his churches warns,
Let hypocrites attend and fear,
Who place their hope in rites and forms,
But make not faith nor love their care.
2 Vile wretches dare rehearse his name
With lips of falsehood and deceit;
A friend or brother they defame,
And sooth and flatter those they hate.
3 They watch to do their neighbours wrong,
Yet dare to seek their Maker's face;
They take his covenant on their tongue,
But break his laws, abuse his grace.
4 To heaven they lift their hands unclean
Defil'd with lust, defil'd with blood;
By night they practise every sin,
By day their mouths draw near to God.
5 And while his judgements long delay,
They grow secure and sin the more;
They think he sleeps as well as they,
And put far off the dreadful hour.
7 Oh dreadful hour! when Gof draws near,
And sets their crimes before their eyes!
His wrath their guilty souls shall tear,
And no deliverer dare to rise. Scripture: Psalm 50 Languages: English
Hypocrisy exposed
The last Judgement
Hymnal: Doctor Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David, corrected and enlarged, to which is added a collection of hymns; the whole applied to the state of the Christian Church in general (2nd ed.) #96 (1786) Topics: God the judge; Hypocrites and hypocrisy; Incarnation and sacrifice of Christ; Judgment Day; Obedience better than sacrifice; Profession false; Saints Reward at last; Sins of tongue; God the judge; Hypocrites and hypocrisy; Incarnation and sacrifice of Christ; Judgment Day; Obedience better than sacrifice; Profession false; Saints Reward at last; Sins of tongue First Line: The Lord, the sovereign sends his summons forth Lyrics: 1 The Lord, the sovereign sends his summons forth,
Calls the south nations, and awakes the north;
From East to West the sounding orders spread
Thro' distant worlds and regions of the dead;
No more shall atheists mock his long delay;
His vengeance sleeps no more: behold the day.
2 Behold the Judge descends; his guards are nigh,
Tempest and fire attend him down the sky;
Heaven, earth and hell, draw near; let all things come
To hear his justice and the sinners' doom;
But gather first my saints (the Judge commands)
Bring them, ye angels from their distant lands.
3 Behold my covenant stands forever good,
Seal'd by th' eternal sacrifice in blood,
And sign'd with all their names, the Greek the Jew
That paid the antient worship or the new,
There's no distinction here, prepare their thrones,
And near me seat my favourites and my sons.
4 I, their almighty Saviour and their God,
I am their Judge; Ye heavens proclaim abroad
My just, eternal sentence, and declare
Those awful truths, that sinners dread to hear;
Sinners in Zion, tremble and retire;
I doom the painted hypocrite to fire.
5 Not for the want of goats or bullocks slain
Do I condemn thee; bulls and goats are vain,
Without the flames of love; in vain the store
Of brutal offerings that were mine before;
Mine are the tamer beasts and savage breed,
Flocks, herds, and fields, and forests where they feed.
6 If I were hungry, would I ask thee food?
When did I thirst, or taste the victim's blood?
Can I be flatter'd with thy cringing bows,
Thy solemn chatterings and fantastic vows?
Are my eyes charm'd thy vestments to behold,
Glaring in gems, and gay in woven gold?
7 Unthinking wretch! how could'st thou hope to please
A God, a spirit, with such toys as these?
While with my grace and statutes on thy tongue
Thou lov'st deceit, and dost thy brother wrong;
In vain to pious forms thy zeal pretends,
Thieves and adulterers are thy chosen friends.
8 Silent I waited with long-suffering love,
But didst thou hope that I should ne'er reprove?
And cherish such an impious thought within,
That God, the righteous would indulge thy sin?
Behold my terrors now; my thunders roll,
And thy own crimes affright thy guilty soul.
9 Sinners, awake betimes; ye fools, be wise;
Awake before this dreadful morning rise;
Change your vain thoughts, your sinful works amend;
Fly to the Saviour, make the Judge your friend;
Lest like a lion his last vengeance tear
Your trembling souls, and no deliverer near. Scripture: Psalm 50 Languages: English

The teeming sea resound with praise;
Let waving fields lift high their voice.

For, lo, He comes, He comes with might,
To wield the scepter and the rod,
To judge the world with truth and right. Scripture: Psalm 96 Languages: English Tune Title: LUCILE

Shall man, O God of light and life
Author: Dewitt Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #925 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Resurrection and Judgment; Day Dawns on the Night of the Grave Lyrics: 1 Shall man, O God of light and life,
For ever molder in the grave?
Canst thou forget thy glorious work,
Thy promise and thy power to save?
2 In those dark, silent realms of night
Shall peace and hope no more arise?
No future morning light the tomb,
Nor day-star gild the darksome skies?
3 Cease, cease, ye vain, desponding fears:
When Christ, our Lord, from darkness sprang,
Death, the last foe, was captive led,
And heaven with praise and wonder rang.
4 Faith sees the bright, eternal doors
Unfold, to make his children way;
They shall be clothed with endless life,
And shine in everlasting day.
5 The trump shall sound, the dead shall wake;
From the cold tomb the slumb'rers spring;
Through heaven, with joy, their myriads rise,
And hail their Saviour and their King.
Shall man, O God of light and life
Psalm 1
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.1 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Blessings of a person; End of the righteous and wicked; Happy saint and cursed sinner; Judgment day; Love of God to the righteous, and hatred to the wicked; Meditation; Punishment of sinners; Saints and sinner's end; Saints and Sinners' portion; Saints happy, and sinners cursed; Sinner and saint's portion; Sinner cursed, and saint happy First Line: Blest is the man who shuns the place Lyrics:
Blest is the man who shuns the place
Where sinners love to meet;
Who fears to tread their wicked ways,
And hates the scoffer's seat:
But in the statutes of the Lord
Has placed his chief delight;
By day he reads or hears the word,
And meditates by night.
[He, like a plant of gen'rous kind,
By living waters set,
Safe from the storms and blasting wind,
Enjoys a peaceful state.]
Green as the leaf, and ever fair,
Shall his profession shine
While fruits of holiness appear
Like clusters on the vine.
Not so the impious and unjust;
What vain designs they form!
Their hopes are blown away like dust,
Or chaff before the storm.
Sinners in judgment shall not stand
Amongst the sons of grace,
When Christ, the Judge, at his right hand
Appoints his saints a place.
His eye beholds the path they tread,
His heart approves it well
But crooked ways of sinners lead
Down to the gates of hell.
