Let the Wicked forsake his Ways
Author: Fawcett Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 283 hymnals Topics: Scripture Invitations and Promises First Line: Sinners, the voice of God regard Lyrics: 1 Sinners, the voice of God regard;
’Tis mercy speaks to-day;
He calls you by his sovereign word,
From sin’s destructive way.
2 Like the rough sea, that cannot rest,
You live devoid of peace;
A thousand stings within your breast,
Deprive your souls of ease.
3 Your way is dark, and leads to hell;
Why will you persevere?
Can you in frightful torments dwell,
Shut up in black despair?
4 Why will you in the crooked ways
Of sin and folly go?
In pain you travel all your days,
To reap immortal woe.
5 But he that turns to God shall live,
Thro' his abounding grace;
His mercy will the guilt forgive
Of those that seek his face.
6 Bow to the sceptre of his word,
Renouncing every sin;
Submit to him your sovereign Lord,
And learn his will divine.
7 His love exceeds your highest thoughts;
He pardons like a God;
He will forgive your numerous faults,
Thro' a Redeemer's blood. Scripture: Isaiah 55:7
Let the Wicked forsake his Ways
The godly Consideration of Election in Christ comfortable
Appears in 29 hymnals Topics: Scripture Doctrines and Blessings Election First Line: Sons we are, thro' God's election Lyrics: 1 Sons we are, thro' God's election,
Who in Jesus Christ believe:
By eternal destination,
Sovereign grace we here receive;
Lord, thy mercy
Does both grace and glory give.
2 Every fallen soul by sinning,
Merits everlasting pain;
But thy love without beginning,
Has restor'd thy sons again:
Countless millions
Shall in life, through Jesus reign.
3 Pause, my soul! adore and wonder!
Ask, "O why such love to me?"
Grace hath put me in the number
Of the Savior's family:
Hallelujah
Thanks, eternal thanks to thee!
4 Since that love had no beginning,
And shall never never cease;
Keep, O keep me, Lord, from sinning!
Guide me in the way of peace!
Make me walk in
All the paths of holiness.
5 When I quit this feeble mansion,
And my soul returns to thee;
Let the power of thy ascension
Manifest itself in me:
Thro' thy spirit
Give the final victory!
6 When the angel sounds the trumpet;
When my soul and body join;
When my Savior comes to judgment,
bright in majesty divine;
Let me triumph
In thy righteousness as mine.
7 When in that blest habitation,
Which my God has fore ordain'd;
When in glory's full possession,
I with saints and angels stand
Free grace only
Shall resound thro' Canaan's Land.

Our Duty to God
Author: Dr. Gibbons Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 10 hymnals Topics: Scripture The Law First Line: That God, who made the worlds on high Lyrics: 1 That God, who made the worlds on high,
And air, and earth, and sea,
Own as thy God, and to his name
In homage bow the knee.
2 Let not a shape which hands have wrought
Of wood, or clay, or stone,
Be deem'd thy God, nor think him like
Aught thou hast seen or known.
3 Take not in vain the name of God:
Nor must thou ever dare,
To make thy falshood pass for truth,
By his dread name to swear.
4 That day on which he bids thee rest
From toil, to pray, and praise,
That day, keep holy to the Lord,
And consecrate it rays.
5 O may that God, who gave these laws,
Write them on every heart,
That all may feel their living power,
Nor from his paths depart! Scripture: Exodus 20:3-12
Our Duty to God
Noah preserved in the Ark, and the believer in Christ
Author: Dr. Doddridge Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 46 hymnals Topics: Scripture Doctrines and Blessings Perseverance First Line: The deluge at the almighty's call Lyrics: 1 The deluge, at th’ almighty’s call,
In what impetuous streams it fell!
Swallow'd the mountains in its rage,
And swept a guilty world to hell.
2 In vain the tallest sons of pride
Fled from the close-pursuing wave,
Nor could their mightiest towers defend,
Nor swiftness ’scape, nor courage save.
3 How dire the wreck? how loud the roar:
How shrill the universal cry
Of millions in the last despair,
Re-echo from the lowering sky!
4 Yet Noah, humble happy saint,
Surrounded with the chosen few,
Sat in his ark, secure from fear,
And sang the grace that steer'd him ’thro.
5 So may I sing, in Jesus safe,
When storms of vengeance round me fall,
Conscious how high my hopes are fix'd,
Beyond what shakes this earthly ball.
6 Enter thine ark, while patience waits,
Nor ever quit that sure retreat;
Then the wide flood, which buries earth,
Shall waft thee to a fairer seat.
7 Nor wreck nor ruin there is seen;
There not a wave of trouble rolls;
But the bright rainbow round the throne
Seals endless life to all their souls.
Scripture: 1 Peter 3:20-21
