Sinners! turn - why will ye die?

Appears in 540 hymnals Topics: Man a Sinner Warned and Entreated Lyrics: 1 Sinners! turn--why will ye die? God, your Maker, asks you why: God, Who did your being give, Made you with Himself to live: He the fatal cause demands, Asks the works of His own hands: Why, oh thankless creatures! why Will ye spurn His love, and die? 2 Sinners! turn--why will ye die? God, your Saviour, asks you why: He who His own life did give, That ye might for ever live: Will you let Him die in vain? Crucify your Lord again? Why, oh ransomed sinners! why Will ye slight His grace, and die? 3 Sinners! turn--why will ye die? God, the Spirit, asks you why: He who all your lives hath strove-- Moved you to embrace His love: Will ye not His love receive? Will ye still refuse to live? Why, oh long-sought sinners! why Will ye grieve your God, and die?

Sinners, will you scorn the message

Appears in 288 hymnals Topics: Man a Sinner Warned and Entreated Lyrics: 1 Sinners, will you scorn the message, Sent in mercy from above? Every sentence--oh how tender!-- Every line is full of love; Listen to it, Every line is full of love. 2 Hear the heralds of the Gospel News from Zion’s King proclaim, To each rebel sinner--"Pardon, "Free forgiveness in His name." How important! Free forgiveness in His name! 3 Tempted souls, they bring you succor; Fearful hearts, they quell your fears, And with news of consolation, Chase away the falling tears: Tender heralds, Chase away the falling tears. 4 False professors, grov'ling wordlings, Callous hearers of the word, While the messengers address you, Take the warnings they afford; We entreat you, Take the warnings they afford. 5 O ye angels, hov'ring round us, Waiting spirits, speed your way, Hasten to the court of heaven, Tidings bear without delay: Rebel sinners, Glad the message will obey.

Seek, my soul, the narrow gate

Appears in 47 hymnals Topics: Man a Sinner Warned and Entreated Lyrics: 1 Seek, my soul, the narrow gate, Enter ere it be too late; Many ask to enter there When too late to offer prayer. 2 God from mercy's seat shall rise, And for ever bar the skies: Then though sinners cry without, He will say, "I know you not." 3 Mournfully will they exclaim; "Lord, we have professed Thy Name; We have ate with Thee, and heard Heavenly teaching in Thy word." 4 Vain, alas! will be their plea, Workers of iniquity; Sad their everlasting lot; Christ will say, "I know you not."

Sinner, art thou still secure?

Appears in 177 hymnals Topics: Man a Sinner Warned and Entreated Lyrics: 1 Sinner, art thou still secure? Wilt thou still refuse to pray? Can thy heart or hands endure In the Lord's avenging day? 2 See, His mighty arm is bared! Awful terrors clothe His brow! For His judgment stand prepared; Thou must either break or bow. 3 At his presence nature shakes, Earth, affrighted, hastes to flee; Solid mountains melt like wax, What will then become of thee? 4 Who his advent may abide? You that glory in your shame, Will you find a place to hide When the world is wrapt in flame? 5 Lord, prepare us by Thy grace! Soon we must resign our breath; And our souls be called to pass Through the iron gate of death. 6 Let us now our day improve, Listen to the gospel voice: Seek the things that are above: Scorn the world's pretended joys.

Can you in frightful torments dwell, Shut up in black despair? 4 Bow to the scepter of His word, Renouncing every sin; Submit to Him, your sovereign Lord, And learn His will divine.

Stop, poor sinners, stop and think

Appears in 247 hymnals Topics: Man a Sinner Warned and Entreated Lyrics: 1 Stop, poor sinners, stop and think, Before you further go! Will you sport upon the brink Of everlasting woe! On the verge of ruin stop! Now the friendly warning take-- Stay your footsteps, ere ye drop Into the burning lake. 2 Say, have you an arm like God, That you His will oppose? Fear you not that iron rod With which He breaks His foes? Can you stand in that dread day, When His judgment shall proclaim, And the earth shall melt away Like wax before the flame? 3 Ghastly death will quickly come. And drag you to His bar; Then to hear your awful doom, Will fill you with despair! And you sins will round you crowd; You shall mark their crimson dye; Each for vengeance crying loud, And what can you reply? 4 Though your heart be made of steel, Your forehead lined with brass; God at length will make you feel; He will not let you pass; Sinners then in vain will call-- Those who now despise His grace-- "Rocks and mountains, on us fall, And hide us from His face."

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 30 hymnals Topics: Man a Sinner Warned and Entreated Lyrics: 1 Why will ye lavish out your years Amidst a thousand trifling cares, While, in the various range of thought, The one thing needful is forgot? 2 Why will ye chase the fleeting wind, And famish an immortal mind, While angels with regret look down To see you spurn a heavenly crown? 3 Th'eternal God calls from above, And Jesus pleads His dying love; Awakened conscience gives you pain: And shall they join their pleas in vain? 4 Not so your dying eyes shall view Those objects which ye now pursue; Not so shall heaven and hell appear When the decisive hour is near. 5 Almighty God! Thine aid impart, To fix conviction on the heart: Thy power can clear the darkest eyes, And make the haughtiest scorner wise.

Speaks not conscience in thine ear? 2 Can this world afford thee bliss? Can it chase away thy gloom? Flattering, false, and vain it is:-- Tremble at the worldling's doom. 3 Think, oh sinner, on thy end; See the judgment-day appear! Thither must thy spirit wend; There thy righteous sentence hear. 4 Wretched, ruined, helpless soul, To a Saviour's blood apply; He alone can make thee whole; Fly to Jesus,--sinner, fly!

The Accepted Time

How sweet the gospel’s charming sound! "Come sinners, haste, oh haste away, While yet a pardoning God is found. 3 "Soon, borne on time’s most rapid wing Shall death command you to the grave, Before His bar your spirits bring, And none be found to hear or save. 4 And in that land of deep despair, No Sabbath’s heavenly light shall rise,-- No God regard your bitter prayer, No Saviour call you to the skies." 5 No wonders to the dead are shown, (The wonders of redeeming love;) No voice His glorious truth makes known, Nor sings the bliss of climes above. 6 Silence, and solitude, and gloom In those forgetful realms appear; Deep sorrows fill the dismal tomb, And hope shall never enter there.
