That awful day will surely come
1
That awful day will surely come,Th' appointed hour makes haste,When I must stand before my Judge,And pass the solemn test.
2
Jesus, thou source of all my joys,Thou ruler of my heart,How could I bear to hear thy voicePronounce the word, Depart!
3
What! to be banished from my Lord,To rocks and mountains cry!And yet to them must call in vain;For who his wrath can fly?
4
O, wretched state of deep despair,To see my God remove,And fix my doleful station whereI cannot taste his love!
