Hear and your soul shall live.
Isaiah 55:3.
179Watts.
Let every mortal ear attend, And every heart rejoice; The trumpet of the gospel sounds With an inviting voice: | 2 Ho! all you hungry, starving souls, Who feed upon the wind, And vainly strive with earthly toys To fill an empty mind. | 3 Eternal wisdom has prepared A soul-reviving feast, And bids your longing appetites The rich provision taste. | 4 Ho! you that pant for living streams, And pine away and die, Here may you quench your raging thirst With springs that never dry. | 5 Rivers of love and mercy here In a rich ocean join; Salvation in abundance flows, Like floods of milk and wine. | 6 Great God! the treasures of thy love Are everlasting mines, Deep as our helpless miseries are, And boundless as our sins. | 7 The happy gates of gospel grace Stand open night and day: Lord, we are come to seek supplies, And drive our wants away. | |
