william billings - exeter lyrics
Loading...
my thoughts on awful subjects roll
d+mnation and the dead;
what horrors seize the guilty soul
upon a dying bed!
lingering about these mortal shores
she makes a long delay
till, like a flood, with rapid force
death sweeps the wretch away
then swift and dreadful she descends
down to the fiery coast
amongst abominable fiends
herself a frightful ghost
there endless crowds of sinners lie
and darkness makes their chains;
tortured with keen despair they cry
yet wait for fiercer pains
not all their anguish and their blood
for their old guilt atones
nor the compassion of a god
shall hearken to their groans
amazing grace! that kept my breath
nor bid my soul remove
till i had learned my savior’s death
and well insured his love
