Sinners, the Voice of God Regard

Sinners

the voice of God re­gard;

’Tis mercy speaks to­day;

He calls you by His sac­red Word

From sin’s de­struct­ive way.

Like the rough sea that can­not rest

You live de­void of peace;

A thou­sand stings with­in your breast

Deprive your souls of ease.

Your way is dark

and leads to hell;

Why will you per­sev­ere?

Can you in end­less tor­ments dwell

Shut up in black des­pair?

Why will you in the crook­ed ways

Of sin and fol­ly go?

In pain you tra­vel all your days

To reap eter­nal woe.

But he that turns to God shall live

Through His ab­ound­ing grace:

His mer­cy will the guilt for­give

Of those that seek His face.

Bow to the scep­ter of His Word

Renouncing eve­ry sin

Submit to Him

your sov­er­eign Lord

And learn His will di­vine.

His love ex­ceeds your high­est thoughts

He par­dons like a God;

He will for­give your nu­mer­ous faults

Through a Re­deem­er’s blood.
