When Abrah'm, full of sacred awe

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 73 hymnals Topics: Particular Occasions and Circumstances Public and National Blessings and Afflictions Lyrics: 1 When Abrah'm, full of sacred awe, Before Jehovah stood, And with an humble fervent pray'r, For guilty Sodom sued; 2 With what success, what wondrous grace, Was his petitions crown'd! The Lord would spare, if in the place Ten righteous men were found. 3 And could a single, pious soul So rich a boon obtain? Good God! and shall a nation cry, And plead with thee in vain? 4 Are not the righteous dear to thee, Now, as in ancient times? Or does this sinful land exceed Gomorrah in its crimes! 5 Still are we thine, we bear thy name, Here yet is thine abode. Long has thy presence blest our land: Forsake us not, O God! 6 O may our people, rulers, priests, Thy choicest blessings share; And know thee by that glorious name, "The God who heareth pray'r!"
