Sweet Salvation

The Lord on high proclaims His Godhead from his throne: "Mercy and justice are the names By which I will be known.” Faith in his name forbids my fear; O may thy presence ne'er depart! And in the morning draw me near The lovingkindness of thy heart. Sweet, sweet salvation, His name proclaims sweet salvation His mercy says “no condemnation” His name proclaims sweet salvation. My flesh shall rest beneath the ground, When the dark night of death shall come, My hope, my righteousness is found In Jesus Christ my Lord, alone. My God in safety makes me dwell Beneath the shadow of his wings. There I’ll wait for your voice to rouse my tomb, Of sweet salvation glory sings! Sweet, sweet salvation, His name proclaims sweet salvation His grace declares “no condemnation” His name proclaims sweet salvation. Sweet, sweet salvation, His name proclaims sweet salvation His mercy cries “no condemnation” His name proclaims sweet salvation. Anthony Foster Some words after Isaac Watts June 30, 2018

The Day of Grace

  Now is the time to serve the Lord, The time to insure the great reward; And while the lamp holds out to burn, The vilest sinner may return. Now is the hour that God has given To escape from hell and fly to heav'n; The day of grace, and mortals may Secure the blessings of the day. This, this, this is the day of grace This, this, this is the time and place. Time to approach the glorious throne To rest in the presence of the living stone This, this, this is the day of grace. The living know that they must die, But all the dead forgotten lie; Their memory and their sense is gone, Alike unknowing and unknown. Then what my thoughts design to do, My hands, with all your might pursue; Since no device nor work is found, Nor faith, nor hope, beneath the ground. Bridge:This is the day of grace today His presence   is your hideaway He’ll ne’er forsake, this is His pledge Don’t live beneath your privilege This, this, this is the day of grace This, this, this is the time and place.
