Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #241 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 There is a voice of sovereign grace
Sounds from the sacred word;
"Ho! ye despairing sinners, come,
And trust upon the Lord."
2 My soul obeys th'Almighty call,
And runs to this relief;
I would believe thy promise, Lord,
Oh! help my unbelief.
3 To the dear fountain of thy blood,
Incarnate God, I fly;
Here let me wash my spotted soul
From crimes of deepest die.
4 Stretch out thine arm, victorious King,
My reigning sins subdue;
Drive the old dragon from his seat,
With his apostate crew.
5 A guilty, weak, and helpless worm,
On thy kind arms I fall;
Be thou my strength and righteousness,
My Jesus, and my all! Topics: Holy Spirit The certaintiy of death and Judgment
There is a voice of sovereign grace
