When Christ descending from the skies
Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #CL (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 When Christ descending from the skies,
As Bridegroom shall appear;
With solemn sound of midnight cries,
To call professors near.
2 That sound will strike an awful damp,
And shew the awful case
Of those who only have the lamp,
Without the oil of grace.
3 The foolish virgins shall awake,
And seek for a supply;
But all in vain they undertake,
To borrow or to buy.
4 Then shall they see that those were wise,
Who they despised here;
And now unto their great surpirze:
They see them happy there.
5 The wise will then be truly blest,
There to be glorified;
But sad distress shall seize the rest,
Whose entrance is denied.
6 In vain they shall attempt to plead:
Lord, with thy Saints we bow'd;
Oft in thy presence we have pray'd,
And sung thy praise aloud.
7 The Lord shall answer from his throne!
Depart ye wicked crew:
I never knew, nor cannot own
Such hypocrites as you.
8 O may my worship be sincere,
Sincere with all my heart--
That I may never need to fear,
To hear the word, depart! Topics: 27th Sunday after Trinity Scripture: Matthew 25:1-13 Languages: English
