Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and Prayers, for Public and Private Worship #442 (1845) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: O may the power which melts the rock Lyrics: 1 O may the power which melts the rock Be felt by all assembled here! Or else our service will but mock The God whom we profess to fear! 2 Lord, while thy judgments shake the land, The people's eyes are fix'd on thee! We own thy just, uplifted hand, Which thousands cannot, will not see. 3 How long hast thou bestow'd thy care On this indulg'd, ungrateful spot; While other nations far and near, Have envied and admir'd our lot. 4 Here peace and liberty have dwelt, The glorious gospel brightly shone And oft our enemies have felt That God has made our cause his own. 5 But ah! both heaven and earth have heard Our vile requital of his love! We, whom like children he has rear'd, Rebels against his goodness prove. 6 His grace despis'd, his pow'r defied, And legions of the blackest crimes, Profaneness, riot, lust, and pride, Are signs that mark the present times. 7 The Lord displeas'd has rais'd his rod; Ah, where are now the faithful few Who tremble for the ark of God, And know what Israel ought to do? 8 Lord, hear thy people every where, Who meet to mourn, confess and pray; The nations and thy churches spare, And let thy rod be turn'd away.
