- 1And will the Judge descend,
- And must the dead arise,
- And not a single soul escape
- His all-discerning eyes?
- 2And from his righteous lips
- Shall this dread sentence sound,
- And through the num'rous guilty throng
- Spread black despair around?--
- 33Depart from me, accursed,
- To everlasting flame,
- For rebel angels first prepared,
- Where mercy never came.
- 4How will my heart endure
- The terrors of that day,
- When earth and heav'n before His face
- Astonished shrink away?
- 5But ere that trumpet shakes
- The mansions of the dead,
- Hark, from the Gospel's cheering sound,
- What joyful tidings spread!
- 6Ye sinners, seek His grace,
- Whose wrath ye cannot bear;
- Fly to the shelter of His cross,
- And find salvation there.
- 7Amen.
