Deut. 30:19
Author: James Montgomery Appears in 645 hymnals Scripture: Deuteronomy 30:19 First Line: Oh, where shall rest be found Lyrics: 1 Oh, where shall a rest be found--
Rest for the weary soul?
'Twere vain the ocean's depths to sound,
Or pierce to either pole.
2 The world can never give
The bliss for which we sigh:
'Tis not the whole of life to live,
Nor all of death to die.
3 Beyond this vale of tears
There is a life above,
Unmeasured by the flight of years;
And all that life is love.
4 There is a death whose pang
Outlasts the fleeting breath:
Oh, what eternal horrors hang
Around the second death!
5 Lord God of truth and grace!
Teach us that death to sun;
Lest we be banished from thy face,
And evermore undone. Topics: Atonement Necessary Used With Tune: SHAWMUT

Ezekiel 33:11
Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 538 hymnals Scripture: Deuteronomy 30:19 First Line: Sinners, turn, why will ye die? 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 work of his own hands,--
Why, ye thankless creatures, why
Will ye cross his love, and die?
2 Sinners, turn, why will ye die?
God, your Saviour, asks you--Why?
He who did your souls retrieve,
Died himself that ye might live.
Will ye let him die in vain?
Crucify your Lord again?
Why, ye 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,
Urged you to embrace his love:
Will ye not his grace receive?
Will ye still refuse to live?
Why, ye long-sought sinners! why,
Will ye grieve your God, and die? Topics: Access to God Used With Tune: MARTYN
Ezekiel 33:11
Prepare to meet God
Author: William B. Collyer Appears in 296 hymnals Scripture: Deuteronomy 30:19 First Line: Great God, what do I see and hear! Lyrics: 1 Great God, what do I see and hear!
The end of things created!
The Judge of man I see appear,
On clouds of glory seated:
The trumpet sounds; the graves restore
The dead which they contained before;
Prepare, my soul, to meet him.
2 The dead in Christ shall first arise,
At the last trumpet's sounding--
Caught up to meet him in the skies,
With joy their Lord surrounding;
No gloomy fears their souls dismay,
His presence sheds eternal day
On those prepared to meet him.
3 But sinners, filled with guilty fears,
Behold his wrath prevailing;
For they shall rise, and find their tears
And sighs are unavailing:
The day of grace is past and gone;
Trembling they stand before the throne,
All unprepared to meet him.
4 Great God! what do I see and hear!
The end of things created!
The Judge of man I see appear,
On clouds of glory seated:
Beneath his cross I view the day
When heaven and earth shall pass away,
And thus prepared to meet him.
