⤢ Full screenSinners, the call obey,The latest call of grace;The day is come, the vengeful dayOf a devoted race.
Devils and men combineTo plague the faithless seed,And vials full of wrath divineAre bursting on your head.
Enter into the Rock,Ye trembling slaves of sin,The Rock of your salvation, struck,And cleft to take you in.
To shelter the distressedHe did the cross endure;Enter into the clefts, and restIn Jesus' wounds secure.
Jesus, to thee we flyFrom the devouring sword;Our city of defence is nigh,Our help is in the Lord.
Or if the scourge o'erflow,And laugh at innocence,Thine everlasting arms, we know,Shall be our souls' defence.
