Repent, the Kingdom Draweth Nigh

Repent

the king­dom draw­eth nigh

The her­ald of the Lord doth cry.

Ye sin­ners lost through Ad­am’s fall

Will ye not heark­en to the call?

Repent! The gra­cious call be­lieve

Haste His for­giv­eness to re­ceive.

The Prince of Life

in­car­nate Word

Life and sal­va­tion can af­ford.

Divine Re­deem­er

glo­ri­ous King!

Repentant hearts to Thee we bring.

Thy ho­ly blood for us was spilt

Cleanse us from all the stains of guilt.

Drawn by Thy Spir­it

through Thy Word

Thine in­vi­ta­tion have we heard.

In an­swer to Thy sweet re­quest

We come to Thee

O Christ

for rest.

Thy par­don

full

com­plete

and free

Removes sin’s aw­ful pe­nal­ty.

Our Fa­ther’s love is now re­stored;

Thou hast re­deemed us

dear­est Lord.

Let us Thy name for­ev­er bless

On earth Thy Gos­pel truth con­fess

Till saved by grace

through faith in Thee

The gates of para­dise we see.
