The Call to Judgment

When the trum­pet of God shall be sound­ing

And the Lord shall des­cend from the sky;

When His voice thro’ the earth is re­sound­ing

And the guil­ty in ter­ror shall cry—

Unrepentant

un­for­giv­en

When Je­ho­vah to judg­ment shall call;

How the sum­mons

the wick­ed con­found­ing

As the knell of their doom must ap­pall.

When the trum­pet of God shall be sound­ing

And the saints shall in tri­umph as­cend;

When with rap­ture in glo­ry sur­round­ing

Their ex­alt­ed Re­deem­er and friend;

Unrepentant

un­for­giv­en

How the sin­ner his doom must be­wail;

Seek the Lord and His mer­cy ab­ound­ing

While a pe­ni­tent’s tears can av­ail.

While the world shall in ang­uish be quak­ing

And the tem­pest of jus­tice shall fall;

When the slum­ber­ing dead are awak­ing

And to judg­ment shall come great and small;

Unrepentant

un­for­giv­en

Self-condemned ev­ery sin­ner will be;

Fly to Je­sus

trans­gress­ion for­sak­ing

While there’s mercy and par­don for thee.
