Matthew 12:36: How then shall sinners meet the Lord
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 10 (1871)
Religion
How then shall sinners meet the Lord,
Or His dread day abide,
If cast for every idle word.
Who can be justified?
The men who freely pardon'd here
On Jesu's death depend.
Shall boldly at the bar appear,
And find the Judge their Friend.
