Woolmer (Exeter, England: 1801). In D. Sedgwick&#8217;s marked copy of John Dobell&#8217;s <em>New Selection</em>, 1806, the author is given as Jonathan Allen; it is not known what authority Sedgwick used to attribute the lyrics to Allen. In later hymnals, the first and
second verse are sometimes transposed.

<p>Sinners, will you scorn the message<br>
Sent in mercy from above?<br>
Every sentence, O how tender!<br>
Every line is full of love:<br>
Listen to it, listen to it,<br>
Every line is full of love.</p>
<p>Hear the heralds of the Gospel<br>
News from Zion&#8217;s King proclaim:<br>
&#8220;Pardon to each rebel sinner,<br>
Free forgiveness in His Name&#8221;:<br>
How important, how important,<br>
&#8220;Free forgiveness in His Name.&#8221;</p>
<p>Tempted souls, they bring you succor;<br>
Fearful hearts, they quell your fears,<br>
And, with news of consolation,<br>
Chase away the falling tears:<br>
Tender heralds, tender heralds,<br>
Chase away the falling tears.</p>
<p>O ye angels, hovering round us,<br>
Waiting spirits, speed your way;<br>
Haste ye to the court of heaven,<br>
Tidings bear without delay,<br>
Rebel sinners, rebel sinners,<br>
Glad the message will obey.</p>
