Justice In Judgement

orchidee



Tune: St Stephen

('In Christ there is no east or west')

Romans 2 v.4-10 parts

*********

See the riches of God's goodness

And forbearance no less

And His longsuffering, we know

He does them to us show

 

The goodness of God does lead to

Repentance, e'en for you

Be not despising this, nor be

Heart-hearted, grudgingly

 

Nor have your heart impenitent

God His grace he has sent

Treasure not up wrath to yourself

It not be your soul's health

 

For the day of His wrath shall come

Known to all, not just some

Revealing His righteous judgement

He shall it not relent

 

He will render to every one

The things that they have done

Wrath shall be to the unrighteous

Salvation to righteous

    Now there is a good hymn one of just retribution to get the juices flowing. Good job Orchi

      Thank you SB. There's some difference between 'judgment' and 'judgement' but I forget what it is! Nope, not only the different spellings of the two words, but the meanings of the two words.

      • sorenbarrett

        Another of those words that can be spelled more than one way like gray and grey. Just another way to confuse the reader and written
