Fallen Angels Punished and Men Saved

Isaac Watts • English

Primary Scripture: 2 Thessalonians 2:8

Verse 1

From heaven the sinning angels fell, And wrath and darkness chained them down; But man, vile man, forsook his bliss, And mercy lifts him to a crown.

Verse 2

Amazing work of sovereign grace, That could distinguish rebels so! Our guilty treasons called aloud For everlasting fetters too.

Verse 3

To thee, to thee, Almighty Love, Our souls, ourselves, our all we pay; Millions of tongues shall sound thy praise On the bright hills of heavenly day.
