Confession and Prayer

Hymnal: Hymns and Spiritual Songs for the use of Christians #71 (1803) First Line: Oh, may the pow'r which melts the rock Lyrics: 1 Oh may the pow'r which melts the rock Be felt by all assembled here! Or else our service will but mock The God whom we profess to fear! 2 Lord, while thy judgments shake the land, The people's eyes are fix'd on thee! We own thy just uplifted hand, Which thousands cannon, will not see. 3 How long hast thou bestow'd thy care On this indulg'd ungrateful spot; While other nations, far and near, Have envy'd and admir'd our lot. 4 Here peace and liberty have dwelt, The glorious gospel brightly shone; And oft our enemies have felt, That God has made our cause his own. 5 But ah! both heav'n and earth have heard Our vile requital of his love! We, whom like children he has rear'd, Rebels against his goodness prove. 6 His grace despis'd, his pow'r defy'd, And legions of the blackest crimes; Profaneness, riot, lust and pride, Are signs that mark the present times. 7 The Lord displeas'd has rais'd his rod, Ah, where are now the faithful few Who tremble for the ark of God, And know what Israel ought to do. 8 Lord hear thy people ev'ry where, Who meet to mourn, confess and pray; The nations and thy churches spare, And let thy wrath be turn'd away.
