How the summons will the sinner's heart confound! 2 See the Judge, our nature wearing, clothed in majesty divine; you who long for his appearing then shall say, "This God is mine!" Gracious Savior, own me in that day as thine. 3 At his call the dead awaken, rise to life from earth and sea; all the pow'rs of nature, shaken by his looks, prepare to flee. Careless sinner, what will then become of thee? 4 But to those who have confessed, loved and served the Lord below, he will say, "Come near, ye blessed, see the kingdom I bestow; you forever shall my love and glory know."

Thou alone my Saviour art, Teach Thy wisdom to my heart; Make me pure, Thy grace bestow, Wash me whiter than the snow. 4 Broken, humbled to the dust By Thy wrath and judgment just, Let my contrite heart rejoice And in gladness hear Thy voice; From my sins O hide Thy face, Blot them out in boundless grace.
