Yea, as I Live, Jehovah Saith (EN 2579)

EN 2579 Yea, as I Live, Jehovah Saith

Ezek.33.11

Versi Version 1

1

Yea, as I live, Jehovah saith,

I would not have the sinner’s death,

But that he turn from error’s ways,

Repent, and live through endless days.

2

To us therefore Christ gave command:

“Go forth and preach in every land;

Bestow on all My pardoning grace

Who will repent and mend their ways.

3

“All those whose sins ye thus remit

I truly pardon and acquit;

And those whose sins ye do retain

Condemned and guilty shall remain.

4

“What ye shall bind, that bound shall be;

What ye shall loose, that shall be free;

Unto My church the keys are giv’n

To ope and close the gates of Heav’n.”

5

The words which absolution give

Are His Who died that we might live;

The minister whom Christ has sent

Is but His humble instrument.

6

When ministers lay on their hands,

Absolved by Christ the sinner stands;

He who by grace the Word believes

The purchase of His blood receives.

7

All praise, eternal Son, to Thee

For absolution full and free,

In which Thou showest forth Thy grace;

From false indulgence guard our race.

8

Praise God the Father and the Son

And Holy Spirit, Three in One,

As ’twas, is now, and so shall be

World without end, eternity!
