Long Has Divine Compassion Strove
Author: Anne Steele Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Long has divine compassion strove
With this rebellious land;
O justice, long has pleading love
Withheld thy dreadful hand.
2 At lengths, ye people, lift your eyes,
Your crimes no more pursue;
Behold the gathering tempest rise,
And tremble at the view!
3 See, fraught with vengeance, how it spreads!
To mercy instant fly;
E’er yet it burst upon your heads,
Repent, repent—or die.
4 Late raging storm, ’twas mercy stayed,
Her voice destruction heard,
Th’impetuous winds her voice obeyed,
And awful justice spared.
5 Shall every warning be in vain
Your ruin to prevent?
Indulgent mercy calls again,
Return, repent! repent!
6 The voice, ye people, hear with awe,
O hear, and turn to God;
Lest mercy, long abused, withdraw,
And leave you to the rod.
7 Almighty God, Thy powerful grace
Can change us, and forgive;
Can save a guilty rebel race,
And say, Repent, and live.
8 O let Thy powerful grace appear,
And justice sheath her sword;
Then shall a rescued nation fear
And love and praise the Lord. Used With Tune: BANGOR Text Sources: Poems on Subjects Chiefly Devotional, 1760, alt.

O Lord and Master of us all
See, Gracious God, Before Thy Throne
Author: Anne Steele Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 186 hymnals Lyrics: 1 See, gracious God, before Thy throne
Thy mourning people bend!
’Tis on Thy sovereign grace alone,
Our humble hopes depend.
2 Tremendous judgments from Thy hand,
Thy dreadful power display:
Yet mercy spares this guilty land,
And yet we live to pray.
3 Great God, and why this nation spare,
Ungrateful as we are?
O be these awful warnings heard,
While mercy cries, Forebear.
4 What numerous crimes increasing rise,
Where Satan shows his smile?
What land so favored of the skies,
And yet what land so vile?
5 How changed, alas! are truths divine,
For error, guilt and shame!
What impious numbers, bold in sin,
Disgrace the Christian name!
6 O bid us turn, almighty Lord,
By Thy resistless grace;
Then shall our hearts obey Thy word,
And humble seek Thy face.
7 Then should insulting foes invade,
We shall not sink in fear;
Secure of never failing aid,
If God, our God, is near. Used With Tune: BANGOR Text Sources: Poems on Subjects Chiefly Devotional, 1760, alt.

Yonder Amazing Sight I See
Author: Samuel Stennett Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 98 hymnals First Line: Yonder—amazing sight!—I see Lyrics: 1 Yonder—amazing sight!—I see
Th’incarnate Son of God,
Expiring on the accursèd tree,
And weltering in His blood.
2 Behold a purple torrent run
Down from His hands and head:
The crimson tide puts out the sun;
His groans awake the dead.
3 The trembling earth, the darkened sky,
Proclaim the truth aloud;
And with th’amazed centurion cry,
"This is the Son of God."
4 So great, so vast a sacrifice,
May well my hope revive:
If God’s own Son thus bleeds and dies,
The sinner sure may live.
5 O that these cords of love divine,
Might draw me, Lord to Thee,
Thou hast my heart, it shall be Thine—
Thine it shall ever be! Used With Tune: BANGOR Text Sources: John Rippon's Collection, 1787
