The Duty of remonstrating against Sin, when Judgments are threatned. Isaiah lviii. 1

by (1773–1832)

Listen in the reader

Thy Judgments cry aloud, O ever-righteous GOD, And in the Sight of all our Land Thou liftest up thy Rod.

Aloud thy Servants cry, Commission'd from thy Throne, And like a Trumpet raise their Voice To make thy Judgments known.

But who that Cry attends, And makes his Safety sure? Rock'd by the Tempest, they should flee, They sleep the more secure.

Another Trumpet, LORD, The stupid Slumb'rers need; Nor will they hear a feebler Voice Than that, which wakes the Dead.
