God of glorious majesty
Whose judgments are abroad
Pierce
and turn our hearts to Thee
With sacred horror awed;
All this drowsy land awake
And by the thunder of Thy power
Shake
our inmost spirits shake
And let us sleep no more.
Rising in Thy dreadful might
The wicked to rebuke
Thou hast with unwonted fright
Our sleeping bodies shook;
Earth did to her center quake
Convulsive pangs her bowels tore;
Ere the threatened ruin come
A general terror dart
Send the keen conviction home
To every thoughtless heart;
Shake us out of Satan’s hands
Burst open every prison door
Rouse
and loose us from our bands
And bid us sin no more.
Jesus
Lord
to whom we cry
The true repentance give
Give us at Thy feet to lie
And tremble
and believe;
On the Rock of Ages place
Our souls
till all the wrath is o’er
Ground
and ’stablish us in grace
