Let Zion's watchman all awake
Author: Doddridge Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #556 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Ezekiel 33:1-9 Lyrics: 1 Let Zion's watchmen all awake,
And take th' alarm they give;
Now let them from the mouth of God
Their awful charge receive.
2 'Tis not a cause of small import
The pastor's care demands,
But what might fill an angel's heart,
And fill'd a Saviour's hands.
3 They watch for souls, for which the Lord
Did heavenly bliss forego--
For souls which must forever live
In rapture or in woe.
4 May they that Jesus whom they preach,
Their own Redeemer see;
And watch thou daily o'er their souls,
That they may watch for thee.

Far from the peaceful shore,
Very deeply stained within,
Sinking to rise no more;
But the Master of the sea
Heard my despairing cry,
From the waters lifted me,
Now safe am I.
Refrain:
Love lifted me!
Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help,
Love lifted me.
Love lifted me!
Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help,
Love lifted me.
2 All my heart to Him I give,
Ever to Him I'll cling,
In His blessed presence live,
Ever His praises sing:
Love so mighty and so true
Merits my soul's best songs;
Faithful, loving service, too,
To Him belongs. [Refrain]
3 Souls in danger, look above,
Jesus completely saves;
He will lift you by His love
Out of the angry waves;
He's the Master of the sea,
Billows His will obey;
He your Savior wants to be,
Be saved today. [Refrain]

Shall live, for hell or heaven. Topics: Life and Death; Warnings Everywhere

Sinner, O why so Thoughtless grown?
Hymnal: The Christian's Duty #S.XXIV (1801) Scripture: Ezekiel 33:11 Lyrics: 1 Sinner, O why so Thoughtless grown?
Why in such dreadful Haste to die;
Daring to leap to Worlds unknown,
Heedless against thy God to fly?
2 Will ye frustrate Eternal Grace,
Urg'd on by Sin's fantastick Dreams,
Madly attempt th'infernal Gate,
And force thy Passage to the Flames?
3 Stay, Sinner, on the Gospel Plains,
Behold the God of Love unfold
The Myst'ry of his Dying Pains,
For ever telling, yet untold. Languages: English
Sinner, O why so Thoughtless grown?
