Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7014 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Repent, the voice celestial cries Lyrics: 1 Repent, the voice celestial cries,
Nor longer dare delay:
The wretch that scorns the mandate dies,
And meets a fiery day.
2 No more the sovereign eye of God
O’erlooks the crimes of men;
His heralds are dispatched abroad
To warn the world of sin.
3 The summons reach thro’ all the earth;
Let Earth attend and fear:
Listen, ye men of royal birth,
And let their vassals hear.
4 Together in His presence bow,
And all your guilt confess;
Accept the offered Savior now,
Nor trifle with the grace.
5 Bow, e’er the awful trumpet sound,
And call you to His bar;
For mercy knows th’appointed bound,
And turns to vengeance there.
6 Amazing Love, that yet will call,
And yet prolong our days!
Our hearts subdued by goodness fall,
And weep, and love, and praise. Languages: English Tune Title: HUNNYS
