Hymns Supplied Through the Gracious Generosity
of the Cyber Hymnal Website
|
Words: Charles Wesley. This hymn was first published in 1741, with 18 stanzas. Then it was split in three parts (see Would Jesus Have the Sinner Die?) and re-published in 1780.
Music: "St. Catherine," Henri Frederick Hemy, 1864; arranged by James George Walton, 1874 |
See, sinners, in the Gospel glass,
The friend and Savior of mankind!
Not one of all the apostate race
But may in Him salvation find!
His thoughts, and words, and actions prove,
His life and death, that God is love!
Behold the Lamb of God, Who bears
The sins of all the world away!
A servant's form He meekly wears,
He sojourns in a house of clay,
His glory is no longer seen,
But God with God is man with men.
See where the God incarnate stands,
And calls His wandering creatures home,
He all day long spreads out His hands,
"Come, weary souls, to Jesus come!
Ye all may hide you in My breast,
Believe, and I will give you rest.
"Ah! do not of My goodness doubt;
My saving grace for all is free;
I will in no wise cast him out
That comes a sinner unto Me;
I can to none Myself deny,
Why, sinners, will ye perish, why?"
