1 Our Saviour comes to raise the just,
Who long have slumbered in the dust;
His voice will break their long repose;
And snatch them from the last of foes.
2 He comes to change the waiting ones
Who now endure the world's cold frowns;
Their feet are planted on the Rock;
They fear not, though a little flock.
3 Sinner, dost thou not dread thy doom?
The retribution hastens on;
Stern justice lifts the avenging sword
To slay the mocker of God's word.
4 O then repent, ere the decree,
"Let him that's filthy, filthy be,"
From the stern Judge's lips shall fall,
And thou for rocks and mountains call!
