#56The Midnight Cry
Hymn Display
1
My heart was cold–lukewarm was I,
When lo! I heard the Midnight Cry;
It rous'd me up–I looked within,
Beheld corruption, error, sin.
2
I sought the Lord with all my might,
He heard my prayer and gave me light.
Filled me with joy–I loved to hear
The solemn cry, the Bridegroom's near.
3
My soul is fill'd with love divine,
I feel I'm his, that he is mine;
My Saviour and my gracious Lord,
And he will come, so says his word.
4
Yes, He will come, he's nigh at hand,
I soon shall join the blood-washed band,
To sing his praise, his glory see,
And reign with him eternally.
