Author: Rev. Philip Doddridge Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran hymnal #458a (1908) Lyrics: 1 And will the Judge descend?
And must the dead arise?
And not a single soul escape
His all-discerning eyes?
2 And from His righteous lips
Shall this dread sentence sound;
And, through the num'rous guilty throng,
Spread black despair around?
3 "Depart from me, accursed,
"To everlasting flame,
For rebel-angels first prepared,
Where mercy never came."
4 How will my heart endure
The terrors of that day,
When earth and heav'n, before His face,
Astonished, shrink away?
5 But ere that trumpet shakes
The mansions of the dead,
Hark, from the Gospel's cheering sound,
What joyful tidings spread!
6 Ye sinners, seek His grace
Whose wrath ye cannot bear;
Fly to the shelter of His cross,
And find salvation there. Topics: Second Sunday of Advent; Christian Life and Hope The Consummation: Judgment; Christian Life and Hope The Consummation: Judgment Languages: English Tune Title: BARNBY (Passion) (Supplication)
