Hymn 166
6 6 6 6 8 8
1. Repent ye Gentiles all
And come and be baptised;
It is the Saviour's call,
He's spoken from the skies,
And sent the message we declare,
His second coming to prepare.

2. Be buried with your Lord,
And rise divinely new,
'Tis his eternal word -
The ancient path pursue,
The promised blessing now secure,
The Spirit's seal, for ever sure.

3. Ye souls with sin distressed,
Who fain would find relief;
Come, on his promise rest,
He will assuage your grief,
He'll send the Spirit from on high,
When with the gospel you comply.

4. Come be adopted in
With Israel's chosen race,
And wash away your sins,
The promised blessing taste;
The covenant stands for ever sure,
To all who to the end endure.
