Seeking the sheep who’re stray­ing,
They all were look­ing for a king
His men of might, in his own sight,
The glory to His name.
And ran­somed hea­then bow the knee;
The cross experienced the self will crucify.
In all our conf­licts this the sword
Myrrh the fragrant death of Christ
Stern jus­tice lifts the av­eng­ing sword
Great his fear and sor­row;
The ang­ry na­tions fret and roar,
Onward, fear­less, press to con­quer,
Burn, burn, O Fire, O Wind, now winnow throughly;
Shaking the hills with pow­er,
In Beth­le­hem.
Give up thy will to Jesus,
To prove the arm they once de­fied
For ’tis life the spirit giveth,
Which saves the soul from sin;

slay

Trust Him in the dark­est day;
Jesus, the lov­ing Shep­herd,
Thou cam’st a lit­tle ba­by thing
That woe is me, poor Child for Thee!
By Thy consuming breath;
The foes that will not wor­ship Thee.
Though cruel it may seem, it is a grand release.
By this same Word we know our task,
Cinnamon is for Christ’s death,
O then re­pent, ere the de­cree,
Before the dawn to­mor­row.
On wings of ven­geance flies our God,
They shall share the glad ho­san­na,
end
The li­ons that de­vour.
Who ra­ther should have to come to kneel and pray
Hush all thy fears and questions,
Tremendous scene of wrath di­vine!
Outward work God never reckons,
And reigns su­preme with­in.
