Too Many, Lord, Abuse Thy Grace (EN 5049)

EN 5049 Too Many, Lord, Abuse Thy Grace

Gal.5.16

Versi Version 1

1

Too many, Lord, abuse Thy grace,

In this licentious day;

And while they boast they see Thy face,

They turn their own away.

2

Thy Book displays a gracious light

That can the blind restore;

But these are dazzled by the sight,

And blinded still the more.

3

The pardon, such presume upon,

They do not beg, but steal;

And when they plead it at Thy throne,

Oh! where’s the Spirit’s seal?

4

Was it for this, ye lawless tribe,

The dear Redeemer bled?

Is this the grace the saints imbibe

From Christ the living Head?

5

Ah, Lord, we know Thy chosen few

Are fed with heavenly fare;

But these, the wretched husks they chew

Proclaim them what they are.

6

The liberty our hearts implore

Is not to live in sin;

But still to wait at wisdom’s door,

Till mercy calls us in.
