Hymn 614 – SOUNDING voice from wilderness | C&S English Hymnary

1. SOUNDING voice from wilderness, The watchman's cry resound; Hear how He shouts there aloud Repentance, repentance, The voice is sounding warning Sincere and warning strict Why are you not moved brethren Show sign of repentance. 2. For the kingdom of Heaven Is now at hand for you; Those whose garments are washed clean Shall only be enthroned; Why don’t you heed the warning? The watchmem’s cry resound It sounds repeatedly, hear, Repent and then be saved. 3. Abana and Farpar streams Might be crystal waters: be But the power of redemption Was to River Jordan, Cast delaying thoughts away And heed God’s warning now: Come to Lake of Salvation Wash and be fully clean. 4. What would now keep you away? There should be no excuse be Behold the river, Jordan All’s ready for you now It’s long you have been doubting, Cease to doubt God’s Spirit Sinners hear the watchman’s cry Now repent and be saved AMEN
