Author: William Cowper Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11661 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Sin has undone our wretched race,
But Jesus has restored
And brought the sinner face to face
With his forgiving Lord.
2 This we repeat from year to year,
And press upon our youth;
Lord, give them an attentive ear,
Lord, save them by Thy truth.
3 Blessings upon the rising race!
Make this a happy hour,
According to Thy richest grace,
And Thine almighty power.
4 We feel for your unhappy state,
(May you regard it too)
And would awhile ourselves forget,
To pour out prayer for you.
5 We see, though you perceive it not,
Th’approaching, awful doom;
O tremble at the solemn thought,
And flee the wrath to come!
6 Dear Savior, let this new-born year
Spread an alarm abroad ;
And cry, in every careless ear,
"Prepare to meet thy God!" Languages: English Tune Title: LAFAYETTE
