Behold This Sodom Here Below

Author: Anna K. Beeman Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16568 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Behold this So­dom here be­low Lyrics: 1 Behold this So­dom here be­low, I leave it all to you, Hinder me not, for I must go, My Je­sus to pur­sue. 2 My world­ly cares will prove my woe, I bid them all adieu; Hinder me not, for I must go, My Je­sus to pur­sue. 3 The word of God hath brought me low, Being con­scious it is true; Hinder me not for I must go, My Je­sus to pur­sue. 4 Not all my pray­ers nor tears that flow, Can form my soul anew; Hinder me not, for I must go, My Je­sus to pur­sue. 5 I hear the terms are ve­ry low, But mo­ney will not do; Hinder me not, for I must go, My Je­sus to pur­sue. 6 In all my right­eous­ness I know, There’s no­thing that is true; Hinder me not, for I must go, My Je­sus to pur­sue. 7 Like Ab’ram’s serv­ant I must know, And like him would prove true; Hinder me not, for I must go, My Je­sus to pur­sue.

Leaving all for Christ

Hymnal: Hymns on Various Subjects #5 (1792) First Line: Behold this Sodom here below Lyrics: 1 Behold this Sodom here below, I leave it all to you, Hinder me not for I must go, My Jesus to pursue. 2 My worldly cares will prove my wos, I bid them all adieu; Hinder me not for I must go, My Jesus to pursue. 3 The word of God hath brought me low, Being conscious it is true; Hinder me not for I must go, My Jesus to pursue. 4 Not all my pray'rs nor tears that flow, Can form my soul anew; Hinder me not for I must go, My Jesus to pursue. 5 I hear the terms are very low, But money will not do; Hinder me not for I must go, My Jesus to pursue. 6 In all my righteousness I know, There's nothing that is true; Hinder me not for I must go, My Jesus to pursue. 7 Like Abraham's servant I must know, And like him would prove true; Hinder me not for I must go, My Jesus to pursue.
