HYMN 57. God's Temple Plants.
1
Ye Sinners now come in,Christ doth invite you all;
Return, return, make Angels sing,
Return for Christ doth call:
2
Lord, thou art Merciful,Most ready to forgive,
And Pardon all that come to Thee,
And do thy Son receive.
3
O leave your wicked WaysBefore it be too Late;
For those that love, and live in Sin,
God's Soul doth loathe and hate:
63
4
But like a Cedar Tree,Which Lebanon forth brings,
The Just shall grow and flourish so
As laden Palm-Tree springs.
5
God's Temple Plants shall thrive,In his blest Courts each one;
And still produce their fruitful juice,
When they to Age are grown:
6
Still Fat and flourish shall,God's Justice to express;
Our Rock is he, most pure and free
From all Unrighteousness.
7
Then sing his Praises forth,Him Honour and Adore;
For you shall sing unto your King
In Glory evermore.
