Sinner, art thou still secure?Wilt thou still refuse to pray?Can thy heart or hands endureIn the Lord's avenging day?

2

At his presence nature shakes;Earth affrighted hastes to flee;Solid mountains melt like wax;What will then become of thee?

3

Who his advent may abide?You that glory in your shame,Will you find a place to hide,When the world is wrapped in flame?

About this hymn

As printed Words only. As printed: hymn number «411» (large) in the right column of p. 132, under «Anon.» of hymn 410, with the italic reference line «240, 605, 407.» (= sing to the tunes of hymns 240, 605 or 407 — the last is GRANNIS, printed on this page) beside the number; three stanzas, numbered «1»–«3»; «Anon.» in italics after stanza 3, at the foot of the right column. The first word «SINNER» is set in capitals and small capitals. Lines 2 and 4 of each stanza are indented in the print. The print sets a thin space before «?» and «;» («secure ?», «pray ?», «day ?», «shakes ;», «flee ;», «wax ;», «thee ?»); it is closed up here. No meter is printed (the text is 7s, like the three tunes referred to). Spelling, punctuation and capitals are the print's.
