And Are We Wretches Yet Alive?

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8040 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 And are we wretches yet alive? And do we yet rebel? ’Tis boundless, ’tis amazing love, That bears us up from hell! 2 The burden of our weighty guilt Would sink us down to flames; And threatening vengeance rolls above, To crush our feeble frames. 3 Almighty goodness cries, Forbear! And straight the thunder stays; And dare we now provoke His wrath, And weary out His grace? 4 Lord, we have long abused Thy love, Too long indulged our sin; Our aching hearts e’en bleed to see What rebels we have been. 5 No more, ye lusts, shall ye command, No more will we obey; Stretch out, O God, Thy conquering hand, And drive Thy foes away.
