Day of Judgment! Day of Wonders!
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 341 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:52 Lyrics: 1 Day of judgment! Day of wonders!
Hark! the trumpet's awful sound,
louder than a thousand thunders,
shakes the vast creation round.
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." Topics: Christ As King; Christ Second Coming and the Last Judgment of; Promises; Resurrection and Glorification; Watchfulness Used With Tune: ST. AUSTIN
Day of Judgment! Day of Wonders!
Come, ye souls by sin afflicted
Author: Joseph Swain Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 48 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 11:28-29 Lyrics: 1 Come, ye souls by sin afflicted,
Bowed with fruitless sorrow down;
By the broken law convicted,
Through the cross behold the crown;
Look to Jesus;
Mercy flows through him alone.
2 Take his easy yoke and wear it;
Love will make obedience sweet;
Christ will give you strength to bear it,
While his wisdom guides your feet
Safe to glory,
Where his ransomed captives meet.
3 Blessed are the eyes that see him,
Blest the ears that hear his voice;
Blessed are the souls that trust him,
And in him alone rejoice:
His commandments
Then become their happy choice.
4 Sweet as home to pilgrim's weary,
Light to newly opened eyes,
Or full springs in deserts dreary,
Is the rest the cross supplies:
All who taste it
Shall to rest immortal rise.
Amen. Topics: Christians Blessedness of; The Church The Free Offer of the Gospel; Comfort; Coming to Christ; Obedience; Rest Used With Tune: ST. AUSTIN

when the creature's help is vain, [Refrain]

find thee still our rock and stay: [Refrain]
