Lo, Jesus spreads abroad his wrath,
and vengeance sits upon his brow;
Tremble, ye rulers of the earth,
And at his feet ye nations bow.
Now lift your suppliant hands, nor more
Against unequal strength rebel;
Fierce and resistless is that power,
Which angels dread and devils fear.
With true repentance seek his face,
Love and adore th’incarnate God;
Sinners who dare resist his grace,
Shall sink beneath his iron rod.
Soon shall that, dreadful day appear,
When he will fix your final doom’
Oh seek for mercy now with care,
Before that awful moment come.
