Yonder Amazing Sight I See
Author: Samuel Stennett Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 98 hymnals First Line: Yonder—amazing sight!—I see Lyrics: 1 Yonder—amazing sight!—I see
Th’incarnate Son of God,
Expiring on the accursèd tree,
And weltering in His blood.
2 Behold a purple torrent run
Down from His hands and head:
The crimson tide puts out the sun;
His groans awake the dead.
3 The trembling earth, the darkened sky,
Proclaim the truth aloud;
And with th’amazed centurion cry,
"This is the Son of God."
4 So great, so vast a sacrifice,
May well my hope revive:
If God’s own Son thus bleeds and dies,
The sinner sure may live.
5 O that these cords of love divine,
Might draw me, Lord to Thee,
Thou hast my heart, it shall be Thine—
Thine it shall ever be! Used With Tune: BANGOR Text Sources: John Rippon's Collection, 1787

When Wild Confusion Wrecks The Air
Author: Mather Byles Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 32 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When wild confusion wrecks the air
And tempests rend the skies,
Whilst blended ruin, clouds and fire
In harsh disorder rise;
2 Safe in my Savior’s love I’ll stand
And strike a tuneful song,
My harp all trembling in my hand,
And all inspired my tongue.
3 I’ll shout aloud, Ye thunders, roll,
And shake the sullen sky;
Your sounding voices, pole to pole
In angry murmurs cry.
4 The earth, she totters on her base,
And clouds the heav’n deform;
Blow, all ye winds from every place,
And rush the final storm.
5 Come quickly, blessèd hope, appear,
Bid swift thy chariot fly,
Let angels tell thy coming near,
And snatch me to the sky.
6 Around thy wheels in gladdest throng
I’d bear a joyful part;
All hallelujah on my tongue,
All rapture in my heart. Used With Tune: BANGOR Text Sources: Appendix to Tate and Brady (Boston: S. Kneeland, 1760)
When Wild Confusion Wrecks The Air
Awake, My Drowsy Soul
Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 27 hymnals First Line: Awake, my drowsy soul, awake Lyrics: 1 Awake, my drowsy soul, awake
And view the threatening scene:
The foes in legion camp around,
And treachery lurks within.
2 ’Tis not this mortal life alone
These enemies assail;
All thine eternal hopes are lost,
If their attempts prevail.
3 Now to the work of God awake;
Behold thy Maker near;
The various, arduous task pursue
With vigor and with fear.
4 The awful register goes on,
Th’account will surely come,
And opening day, or closing night
May bear me to my doom.
5 Tremendous thought! How deep it strikes!
Yet like a dream it flies,
Till God’s own voice the slumbers chase
From these deluded eyes. Used With Tune: BANGOR Text Sources: Published posthumously in Hymns Founded on Various Texts in the Holy Scriptures, by Job Orton (J. Eddowes and J. Cotton, 1755)
