Thou Son of God, Whose Flaming Eyes (EN 4172)

EN 4172 Thou Son of God, Whose Flaming Eyes

John.4.23

Versi Version 1

1

Thou Son of God, whose flaming eyes

Our inmost thoughts perceive,

Accept the grateful sacrifice

Which now to Thee we give.

2

We bow before Thy gracious throne,

And think ourselves sincere;

But show us, Lord, is everyone

Thy real worshiper?

3

Is here a soul who knows Thee not,

Nor feels his need of Thee;

A stranger to the blood which bought

His pardon on the tree?

4

Convince him now of unbelief,

His desperate state explain;

And his fill his heart with sacred grief,

And penitential pain.

5

Speak with that voice that wakes the dead,

And bid the sleeper rise,

And bid his guilty conscience dread

The death that never dies.

6

Extort the cry, “What must be done

To save a wretch like me?

How shall a trembling sinner shun

That endless misery?

7

“I must this instant now begin,

Out of my sleep to wake,

And turn to God, and every sin

Continually forsake.

8

“I must for faith incessant cry,

And wrestle, Lord, with Thee;

I must be born again, or die

To all eternity.”
