HYMN 54. Grace abounding: Or, A Call to come to Christ .

1

Hark sinners, hark, the Trumpet sounds
A Call; it is to you
To come to Christ; tho sin abounds,
Gods Grace doth overflow.

2

Rebels! (saith God) lay down your Arms,
and make your Peace with Me;
O quickly uow, come in to Day,
you shall Forgiven be!

3

With thee, O Lord, there's Mercy found,
therefore we will Rejoyce;

76

God's grace, in Christ, it doth abound,
sinners lift up your voice,

4

Let Pray'rs and Tears flow out amain,
be overcome with Love;
And never cease until you see
your hearts to God do move.

5

O quickly now, agree with him,
whom you offended have;
O Saints praise him, and Sinners know
'tis Christ alone can Save

6

Your souls from Wrath, O Look to him!
so may, you sing likewise
So you shall have true Peace and be
free from all Enemies.
