The Successful Resolve
Edmund Jones • English
Primary Scripture: 2 Kings 7:3-5
Verse 1
Come, humble sinner, in whose breast A thousand thoughts revolve, Come, with your guilt and fear oppressed, And make this last resolve:
Verse 2
I'll go to Jesus, though my sins Like mountains round me close; I know His courts, I'll enter in, Whatever may oppose.
Verse 3
Prostrate I'll lie before His throne, And there my guilt confess; I'll tell Him, I'm a wretch undone Without His sovereign grace.
Verse 4
Perhaps He will admit my plea, Perhaps will hear my prayer; But if I perish I will pray, And perish only there.
Verse 5
I can but perish if I go; I am resolved to try; For if I stay away, I know I must forever die.
Verse 6
AMEN.
