The Entreaty
11. See the judge descending, descending, See the judge descending in that great day; So come, poor sinner, you can't stand his fire, Before that hour, haste thee away.
22. Christians are rejoicing, rejoicing, Christians are rejoicing in this our day; They know their Savior, to Eden's bower, In that blest hour, calls them away.
33. Angels are a shouting, a shouting, Angels are a shouting in this our day; To bear the sinner for Christ inquire With Satan's power draws them the way.
44. Converts are a praising, a praising, Converts are a praising in this our day; That blessed Savior, who in this hour, From Satan's power draws them away.
55. The bride she is a calling, a calling, The bride she is a calling in this our day; She calls you, sinner, with all her power, In this blest hour, O come away.
66. The Savior is a coming, a coming, The Savior is a coming in this our day; Oh come in glory, we'll fall before thee, We'll all adore thee through endless day.
