O Holy Father, Righteous God!

Author: Paul B. Henkel Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #14468 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O Holy Father, righteous God! Our souls are filled with fear; Thy punishments, Thy scourge and rod, Have now approachèd near. 2 Distressèd and alarmed we stand, To see our awful state; Thy judgments on our guilty land, Are what we must await. 3 Thy punishments are very just, O Lord, we must confess; We should be humbled to the dust, Who have abused Thy grace. 4 How long have we abused Thy Word, And run the sinful course; Well we deserve to feel the sword With all its weight and force. 5 In many ways have we been warned To turn from these our ways; But all Thy mercies we have spurned, And slighted all Thy grace. 6 But O, the time is come at last, When we must feel the shock; God’s righteous sentence now is passed, And justice strikes the stroke. 7 O, whither can such creatures flee? Such as we are indeed! But unto Thee, O Lord! to Thee Whose promises we plead. Languages: English Tune Title: OLD MARTYRS
