Ah! guilty sinner, ruined by transgression

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #423 (1886) Topics: The Sinner Warning and Invitation Lyrics: 1 Ah! guilty sinner, ruined by transgression, What will thy doom be when arrayed in terror? God shall command thee, covered with pollution, "Up to the judgment, up to the judgment?" 2 Oft he has called thee, but thou would'st not hear him; Mercies and judgments have alike been slighted; Yet he is gracious, and with arms unfolded Waits to embrace you. 3 But if you trifle with his gracious message, Cleave to the world, and love its guilty pleasures, Mercy, grown weary, will in righteous judgment Leave you forever. 4 Then you shall call, but he will not regard you; Seek for his favor, yet will never find it; Cry to the rocks to hide you from his presence Deep in their caverns. 5 O! guilty sinner, hear the voice of warning; Fly to the Saviour, and embrace his pardon: So shall you meet him, and with joy triumphant, Coming to judgment.

He often has called thee but thou hast refused; His offered salvation and love are abused. 2 O slight not the warning now offered at last, Till summer is ended and harvest is passed; Till mercy, long slighted, has left thy heart's door, And pardon, sweet pardon, is offered no more. 3 While Jesus is calling, O turn not away; For swiftly approacheth the dread judgment day: The Spirit invites you, O why will you roam? Come now to life's waters, ye thirsty ones, come. 4 The last call of mercy now lingers for thee; O, break the strong fetters of sin, and be free! The Bride is now calling; ye wanderers, come; Accept of salvation, in heaven there's room. Tune Title: WARNING

Sinners, will you scorn the message

Hymnal: The Book of Worship #278 (1867) Topics: Man a Sinner Warned and Entreated Lyrics: 1 Sinners, will you scorn the message, Sent in mercy from above? Every sentence--oh how tender!-- Every line is full of love; Listen to it, Every line is full of love. 2 Hear the heralds of the Gospel News from Zion’s King proclaim, To each rebel sinner--"Pardon, "Free forgiveness in His name." How important! Free forgiveness in His name! 3 Tempted souls, they bring you succor; Fearful hearts, they quell your fears, And with news of consolation, Chase away the falling tears: Tender heralds, Chase away the falling tears. 4 False professors, grov'ling wordlings, Callous hearers of the word, While the messengers address you, Take the warnings they afford; We entreat you, Take the warnings they afford. 5 O ye angels, hov'ring round us, Waiting spirits, speed your way, Hasten to the court of heaven, Tidings bear without delay: Rebel sinners, Glad the message will obey.

Hymnal: The Book of Worship #281 (1867) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Man a Sinner Warned and Entreated Lyrics: 1 Say, sinner, hath a voice within Oft whispered to thy secret soul, Urged thee to leave the ways of sin, And yield thy heart to God’s control? 2 Hath something met thee in the path Of worldliness and vanity, And pointed to the coming wrath, And warned thee from that wrath to flee? 3 Sinner, it was a heavenly voice,— It was the Spirit’s gracious call; It bade thee make the better choice, And haste to seek in Christ thine all. 4 Spurn not the call to life and light; Regard in time the warning kind; That call thou may'st not always slight, And yet the gate of mercy find. 5 God’s Spirit will not always strive With hardened, self-destroying man; Ye, who persist His love to grieve, May never hear His voice again. 6 Sinner, perhaps this very day, Thy last accepted time may be; Oh shouldst thou grieve Him now away, Then hope may never beam on thee.

My People, Give Ear, Attend to My Word

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #157 (1934) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Topics: Warning Lyrics: 1 My people, give ear, attend to my word, In parables new deep truths shall be heard; The wonderful story our fathers made known To children succeeding by us must be shown. 2 Instructing our sons we gladly record The praises, the works, the might of the Lord, For He has commanded that what He has done Be passed in tradition from father to son. 3 Let children thus learn from history’s light To hope in our God and walk in His sight, The God of their fathers to fear and obey, And ne’er like their fathers to turn from His way. 4 The story be told, to warn and restrain, Of hearts that were hard, rebellious, and vain, Of soldiers who faltered when battle was near, Who kept not God’s covenant nor walked in His fear. 5 God’s wonderful works to them He had shown, His marvelous deeds their fathers had known; He made for their pathway the waters divide, His glorious pillar of cloud was their guide. 6 He gave them to drink, relieving their thirst, And forth from the rock caused water to burst; Yet faithless they tempted their God, and they said, Can He who gave water supply us with bread? 7 Jehovah was wroth because they forgot To hope in their God, and trusted Him not; Yet gracious, He opened the doors of the sky And rained down the manna in richest supply. 8 With bread from on high their need He supplied, And more did He do when thankless they sighed; The strong winds commanding from south and from east, He sent them abundance of quail for their feast. 9 Though well they were filled, their folly they chose, Till God in His wrath o’erwhelmed them with woes; He slew of their strongest and smote their young men, But still unbelieving they sinned even then. 10 Because of their sin He smote with His rod, And then they returned and sought for their God; Their Rock and Redeemer was God the Most High, Yet false were their praises, their promise a lie. 11 Not right with their God in heart and in will, They faithlessly broke His covenant still; But He, in compassion, reluctant to slay, Forgave them and oft turned His anger away. 12 His pity was great, though often they sinned, For they were but flesh, a swift passing wind; Yet though His compassion and grace they beheld, They tempted and grieved Him and often rebelled. 13 They limited God, the Most Holy One, And hindered the work His grace had begun; The hand that was mighty to save they forgot, The day of redemption remembering not. 14 Ungrateful and blind, no longer they thought Of wonders and signs and mighty deeds wrought, Of how all the rivers of Egypt ran red, And plagues in God’s anger were heaped on their head. 15 They thought not of how, their freedom to gain, In Egypt’s abodes the first-born were slain, And how all God’s people were led forth like sheep, The flock He delighted in safety to keep.

Oh, what an awful picture! To some it will come true; And, oh, my brother, sister, Shall it be I or you? 4 Oh, souls, be up and doing, We have no time to lose, There’s life and death before us— Oh, which one will you choose?

Psalm 58

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.128 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Magistrates warned First Line: Judges, who rule the world by laws Lyrics: Judges, who rule the world by laws, Will ye despise the righteous cause, When th' injured poor before you stands? Dare ye condemn the righteous poor, And let rich sinners 'scape secure, While gold and greatness bribe your hands? Have ye forgot, or never knew, That God will judge the judges too? High in the heav'ns his justice reigns; Yet you invade the rights of God, And send your bold decrees abroad, To bind the conscience in your chains. A poisoned arrow is your tongue, The arrow sharp, the poison strong, And death attends where'er it wounds: You hear no counsels, cries, or tears; So the deaf adder stops her ears Against the power of charming sounds. Break out their teeth, eternal God, Those teeth of lions dyed in blood; And crush the serpents in the dust: As empty chaff when whirlwinds rise Before the sweeping tempest flies, So let their hopes and names be lost. Th' Almighty thunders from the sky, Their grandeur melts, their titles die, As hills of snow dissolve and run, Or snails that perish in their slime, Or births that come before their time, Vain births, that never see the sun. Thus shall the vengeance of the Lord Safety and joy to saints afford; And all that hear shall join and say, "Sure there's a God that rules on high, A God that hears his children cry, And will their suff'rings well repay." Scripture: Psalm 58 Languages: English

Psalm 82

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.172 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Magistrates warned First Line: Among th' assemblies of the great Lyrics: Among th' assemblies of the great A greater Ruler takes his seat; The God of heav'n, as Judge, surveys Those gods on earth, and all their ways. Why will ye, then, frame wicked laws? Or why support th' unrighteous cause? When will ye once defend the poor, That sinners vex the saints no more? They know not, Lord, nor will they know; Dark are the ways in which they go; Their name of earthly gods is vain, For they shall fall and die like men. Arise, O Lord, and let thy Son Possess his universal throne, And rule the nations with his rod; He is our Judge, and he our God. Scripture: Psalm 82 Languages: English

Psalm 95

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.204 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Delaying sinners warned First Line: Sing to the Lord Jehovah's name Lyrics: Sing to the Lord Jehovah's name, And in his strength rejoice; When his salvation is our theme, Exalted be our voice. With thanks approach his awful sight, And psalms of honor sing; The Lord's a God of boundless might, The whole creation's King. Let princes hear, let angels know, How mean their natures seem, Those gods on high and gods below, When once compared with him. Earth, with its caverns dark and deep, Lies in his spacious hand; He fixed the seas what bounds to keep, And where the hills must stand. Come, and with humble souls adore, Come, kneel before his face O may the creatures of his power Be children of his grace! Now is the time; he bends his ear, And waits for your request; Come, lest he rouse his wrath and swear, "Ye shall not see my rest." Scripture: Psalm 95 Languages: English

He formed the deeps unknown; He gave the seas their bound; The wat'ry worlds are all his own, And all the solid ground. Come, worship at his throne; Come, bow before the Lord: We are his works, and not our own; He formed us by his word. Today attend his voice, Nor dare provoke his rod; Come, like the people of his choice, And own your gracious God. But if your ears refuse The language of his grace, And hearts grow hard, like stubborn Jews, That unbelieving race; The Lord, in vengeance dressed, Will lift his hand and swear, "You that despise my promised rest Shall have no portion there." Scripture: Psalm 95 Languages: English

Psalm 95

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.206 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Delaying sinners warned First Line: Come, let our voices join to raise Lyrics: Come, let our voices join to raise A sacred song of solemn praise; God is a sovereign King, rehearse His honors in exalted verse. Come, let our souls address the Lord, Who framed our natures with his word; He is our Shepherd; we the sheep His mercy chose, his pastures keep. Come, let us hear his voice today, The counsels of his love obey; Nor let our hardened hearts renew The sins and plagues that Isr'el knew. Isr'el, that saw his works of grace, Yet tempt their Maker to his face; A faithless, unbelieving brood, That tired the patience of their God. Thus saith the Lord: "How false they prove Forget my power, abuse my love! Since they despise my rest, I swear, Their feet shall never enter there." [Look back, my soul, with holy dread, And view those ancient rebels dead; Attend the offered grace today, Nor lose the blessing by delay. Seize the kind promise while it waits, And march to Zion's heav'nly gates: Believe, and take the promised rest; Obey, and be for ever blest.] Scripture: Psalm 95:1-3 Languages: English

Speak, O ye judges of the earth

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #P.LVIII (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Warning to Magistrates Lyrics: 1 Speak, O ye judges of the earth, If just your sentence be: Or must not innocence appeal To heav'n from your decree? 2 Your wicked hearts and judgements are Alike by malice sway'd; Your griping hands, by weighty bribes, To violence betray'd. 3 To virtue strangers, from the womb, Their infant steps went wrong; They prattled slander, and in lies Employ'd their lisping tongue. 4 No serpent of parch'd Afric's breed Does ranker poison bear; The drowsy adder will as soon, Unlock his sullen ear. 5 Unmov'd by good advice, and deaf As adders they remain; From whom the skilful charmer's voice Can no attention gain. 6 Defeat, O God, their threat'ning rage, And timely break their pow'r: Disarm these growling lions' jaws, E're practis'd to devour. 7 Let now their insolence, at height, Like ebbing tides, be spent; Their shiver'd darts deceive their aim, When they their bow have bent. 8 Like snails let them dissolve to slime; Like hasty births become Unworthy to behold the sun, And dead within the womb. 9 E'er thorns can make the flesh-pot boil, Tempest'ous wrath shall come From God, and snatch them hence alive, To their eternal doom. 10 The righteous shall rejoice to see, Their crimes with vengeance meet; And saints in persecutor's blood Shall dip their harmless feet. 11 Transgressors then with grief shall see Just men rewards obtain, And own a God, whose justice will The guilty earth arraign.
