Righteous Renderings

Tune: Dove of Peace

(\'I come with joy to meet my Lord\')

Romans 2 v.4-10

********

1. See here, riches of God, here see

His goodness here it be

And forbearance, longsuffering too

His graces unto you

 

2. His goodness shown to lead you sure

To repentance, true, pure

Be not hard-hearted, impenitent

Salvation he has sent

 

3. Treasure not up to yourself wrath

Will consume you as moth

In the day of wrath, is revealed

God\'s righteous judgement sealed

 

4. He will to each one then render

For each one\'s deeds confer

To those who patient continue

Shall be blessings anew

 

5. For they in well doing do seek

For glory, honour, they meek

And honour, immortality

For those, their hearts set be

 

6. Such shall obtain life eternal

And then their joys be full

They always knowing God\'s presence

His love they have and sense

 

7. But if contentious, and do no

Obey the truth, their lot

Is that they do unrighteousness

God shall not them more bless

 

8. But indignation, wrath, troubles

Anguish that has appalls

The shall have, for they work evil

And do not hear God\'s call

 

9. Though glory, honour, peace to each

Who do good, so they reach

Full state of grace eventually

The Lord they ever see
