How Sweet and Awful Is The Place Lyrics
(also called How Sweet and Awesome Is The Place)
- Verse 1
- How sweet and awful is the place
- With Christ within the doors,
- While everlasting love displays
- The choicest of her stores!
- Verse 2
- Here every kindness of our God
- With soft compassion rolls;
- Here peace and pardon bought with blood
- Is food for dying souls.
- Verse 3
- While all our hearts and all our songs
- Join to admire the feast,
- Each of us cry, with thankful tongues,
- “Lord, why was I a guest?
- Verse 4
- “Why was I made to hear Thy voice,
- And enter while there’s room,
- When thousands make a wretched choice,
- And rather starve than come?”
- Verse 5
- ‘Twas the same love that spread the feast
- That sweetly drew us in;
- Else we had still refused to taste,
- And perished in our sin.
- Verse 6
- Pity the nations, O our God!
- Constrain the earth to come;
- Send Thy victorious Word abroad,
- And bring the strangers home.
- Verse 7
- We long to see Thy churches full,
- That all the chosen race
- May with one voice, and heart and soul,
- Sing Thy redeeming grace.
