Oh, what stupendous mercy shines

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #661 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: Hymns, Selected and Original Lyrics: 1 Oh, what stupendous mercy shines Around the majesty of Heaven! Rebels he deigns to call his sons, Their souls renew'd, their sins forgiven. 2 Go, imitate the grace divine,-- The grace that blazes like a sun; Hold forth your fair, though feeble light, Through all your lives let mercy run! 3 Upon your bounty's willing wings Swift let the great salvation fly; The hungry feed, the naked clothe; To pain and sickness help apply. 4 Pity the weeping widow's wo, And be her counsellor and stay; Adopt the fatherless, and smooth To useful, happy life, his way. 5 Let age, with want and weakness bow'd, Your bowels of compassion move; Let e'en your enemies be bless'd,-- Their hatred recompens'd wtih love. 6 When all is done, renounce your deeds-- Renounce self-righteousness with scorn: Thus will you glorify your God, And thus the Christian name adorn.
