Hymn/Song Information

WARNING TO THE MALEVOLENT




Ye souls immersed in earth and sense,
Ye sons of wrath and violence;
Ye bigots fraught with zeal and pride,
When censure all the world beside—


ye men of mischief who devour
The friendless and the pious poor;
Whose envious hearts and bitter tongues,
Rejoice in injuries and wrongs—


The Lord observes with angry eyes,
The various evils you devise;
And will with indignation frown
On natures so unlike his own.


Those grief shall feel, who grief create,
Who hate mankind, mankind shall hate;
Who other’s sorrows will not share,
Themselves shall fall without a tear.


But the benevolent and kind,
Who mercy show, shall mercy find;
The man of sympathy and love,
Earth will applaud, and heaven approve.
