Hymn 94

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #I.94 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Vain are the hopes the sons of men Lyrics: Vain are the hopes the sons of men On their own works have built; Their hearts by nature all unclean, And all their actions guilt. Let Jew and Gentile stop their mouths Without a murm'ring word, And the whole race of Adam stand Guilty before the Lord. In vain we ask God's righteous law To justify us now; Since to convince and to condemn Is all the law can do. Jesus, how glorious is thy grace! When in thy name we trust, Our faith receives a righteousness That makes the sinner just. Scripture: Romans 3:19-22 Languages: English
