[Repent, ye self-destroying race]

Because He hath appointed a day, in the, &c. —xvii. 31.

Repent, ye self-destroying race,
Improve the momentary grace
He offers you once more;

344

Obey His merciful command;
The end of all things is at hand,
The Judge is at the door!
Expecting that appointed day,
When heaven and earth shall flee away
Before their Maker's frown,
I pass my time in watchful fear,
Till Jesus in the clouds appear,
Till the great God come down.
The Man who suffer'd in our stead
His Father raised Him from the dead,
Ordain'd the Judge supreme,
That all at His tribunal placed
May be pronounced accursed or bless'd,
Condemn'd or crown'd by Him.
Assured I am by Jesus' rise
To see Him coming in the skies,
The Man who died for me,
That crucified with Him below
I may His glorious kingdom know,
And God for ever see!
