Amidst displays of wrath and love,
What stubborn creatures, Lord, are we!
No relish for the joys of heaven,
No dread of endless misery!
With what a base contempt we treat
Thy threatenings, and thy promises;
Duty neglect; and mercy slight,
Nor fear to sin, nor seek to please!
Could angels weep, for us they’d mourn,
Break then these rocky hearts, oh God;
Or we must melt beneath thy grace,
Or feel the terrors of thy rod.
