SEEK THE LORD.

By S. Elmer

Seek now the Lord, ye meek of earth Who have his judgments wrought, Ye may be hid, since Jesus hath A full salvation bought.
Seek him, ye wretched wandering souls, Who have despised his grace; A fearful storm is gathering fast, Go seek a hiding place.
Seek him while mercy's voice is heard, Beseeching you to come, Ere justice draw his glittering sword, And seal the sinner's doom.
Seek ye the Lord while he is near, Now, while he may be found, Lest you should call and be not hear While sorrows press around.
Seek him before the righteous Judge Shall fix the firm decree, That whoso'er is filthy found, Shall ever filthy be!
O haste, and God's commandments keep, And find his promise sure, Then should the earth's foundation shake, Your souls may rest secure.
And though the fearful thunders roll, And the red lightnings glare, You'll safely reach a Father's home, And find a welcome there. S. ELMER.
