[Give glory to your God and Lord]

Give glory to the Lord your God, &c. —xiii. 16.

Give glory to your God and Lord,
By casting all your sins away,
Warn'd by His Spirit and His word,
Sinners, repent, believe, obey,

22

Before He chase you from His sight,
And cover with Egyptian night.
Before ye lose your stumbling feet,
And on the dreary mountains fall,
Shrink from the dark unfathom'd pit,
On Jesu's name for mercy call,
Snatch, save us from the gulf beneath,
The horrors of eternal death.
