Though in the Outward Church Below

v1. . A Though in the outward Church below

. . . . B Ere long will Jesus weed the crop

. . . . . . C And pluck the tares in anger up.

v2. . . . . . . . D Will it relieve the horror there

. . . . . . . . . . E How much they heard, how much they knew?

. . . . . . . . . . . . F How much among the wheat they grew?

v3. . . . . . . . . . . . . . G No; this will aggravate their case;

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . H They perish under means of grace;

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . I . . To them the word of life and faith

v4. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . J . . We seem alike when here we meet;

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . K Strangers may think we are all wheat;

(Chorus). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . L For soon the reaping time will come.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . L' And angels shout the harvest home.

v4.... . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . K' But to the Lord's all-searching eyes,

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . J' Each heart appears without disguise.

v5. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . I' The tares are spared for various ends,

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . H' Others the Lord against their will,

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . G' Employs his counsels to fulfill.

v6. . . . . . . . . . . . F' But though they grow so tall and strong,

. . . . . . . . . . E' His plan will not require them long;

. . . . . . . . D' In harvest, when he saves his own,

. . . . . . C' The tares shall into hell be thrown.

v7. . . . B' O! awful thought, and is it so?

. . A' Is every man a wheat or tare?
