CCLV. The last Judgment

1 See where the great incarnate God
Fills a Majestick Throne,
While from the Skies his awful Voice
Bears the last Judgment down.

[2 "I am the First, and I the Last,
"Through endless Years the same;
"I AM is my Memorial still,
"And my eternal Name.

3 "Such Favours as a God can give,
"My royal Grace bestows;
"Ye thirsty Souls, come taste the Stream;
"Where Life and Pleasure flows.]

[4 "The Saint that triumphs o'er his Sins,
"I'll own him for a Son;
"The whole Creation shall reward
"The Conquests he has won.

5 "But bloody Hands, and Hearts unclean,
"And all the lying Race,
"The faithless and the scoffing Crew,
"That spurn at offer'd Grace;

6 "They shall be taken from my Sight,
"Bound fast in Iron Chains,
"And headlong plung'd into the Lake
"Where Fire and Darkness reigns."]

7 O may I stand before the Lamb,
When Earth and Seas are fled!
And hear the Judge pronounce my Name
With Blessings on my Head!

8 May I with those forever dwell
Who here were my Delight,
While Sinners banish'd down to Hell,
No more offend my Sight.
