’Tis He! ’Tis He! The Son of God!
He sends His awful voice abroad:
Let earth her Lord revere!
With thousand saints behold Him come;
The world before her judge is dumb
And waits her doom to hear.
He calls to Heaven
He calls to earth;
The nations from their tombs come forth
And throng before His face.
Approach
ye
first
the Savior cries
Whose boast is in My sacrifice
And covenant of grace.
My people
hear! Your God will speak:
No empty rites and forms I seek
No specious act or word:
Mine eye is on the heart within
And there the service must begin
That satisfies the Lord.
Where secret wickedness I see
The fawning lip or bending knee
But move My scorn and hate!
Lord
on our souls this truth impress
And make us all that we profess
Ere yet it be too late!
