The Savior's Message
John Murray • English
Primary Scripture: Mark 16:15
Verse 1
Hark, 'tis the Saviour of mankind, Speaks to his chosen few; 'Tis he who leads the wand'ring blind, In ways they could not know.
Verse 2
'Tis he who says, "Go forth my friends, Proclaim my truth to all; Inform each soul my grace extends As wide as Adam's fall.
Verse 3
Tell sinners of the deepest dye, That they might life obtain, I chose the cursed death to die, And taste infernal pain!
Verse 4
What though my ransom'd may refuse,, The message to receive; And you the messengers abuse, Yet still I come to save.
Verse 5
Yea, should the tempter still prevail, To blind my people's eyes; In my great day I'll rend the veil, From all beneath the skies.
Verse 6
Then ev'ry eye shall see the grace, You now in faith declare; And I myself from ev'ry face, Will wipe off ev'ry tear."
Verse 7
Lord we believe thy sacred word, And wait the glorious day, When ev'ry soul by grace restor'd, Shall walk in wisdom's way.
