Hymn 42

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 16 hymnals First Line: Adore and tremble, for our God Scripture: Hebrews 12:29 Lyrics: Adore and tremble, for our God Is a consuming fire! His jealous eyes his wrath inflame, And raise his vengeance higher. Almighty vengeance, how it burns! How bright his fury glows! Vast magazines of plagues and storms Lie treasured for his foes. Those heaps of wrath, by slow degrees, Are forced into a flame; But kindled, oh! how fierce they blaze! And rend all nature's frame. At his approach the mountains flee, And seek a wat'ry grave; The frighted sea makes haste away, And shrinks up every wave. Through the wide air the weighty rocks Are swift as hailstones hurled; Who dares engage his fiery rage That shakes the solid world? Yet, mighty God, thy sovereign grace Sits regent on the throne; The refuge of thy chosen race When wrath comes rushing down. Thy hand shall on rebellious kings A fiery tempest pour, While we beneath thy shelt'ring wings Thy just revenge adore.

By foes derided, by Thine own rejected, O most afflicted. 2 Who was the guilty? Who brought this upon Thee? Alas, my treason, Jesus, hath undone Thee. 'Twas I, Lord, Jesus, I it was denied Thee: I crucified Thee. 3 Lo, the Good Shepherd for the sheep is offered; The slave hath sinned, and the Son hath suffered; For man's atonement, while he nothing heedeth, God intercedeth. 4 For me, kind Jesus, was Thy incarnation, Thy mortal sorrow, and Thy life's oblation: Thy death of anguish and Thy bitter passion, For my salvation. 5 Therefore, kind Jesus, since I cannot pay Thee, I do adore Thee, and will ever pray Thee Think on Thy pity and Thy love unswerving Not my deserving.
