Come Ye Sinners
The church has been blessed with a vast amount of rich hymns that articulate the gospel clearly and are good for the soul. Surely, Christians should be marked as those who have a song in their hearts! "Come Ye Sinners" was written in 1759 by Joseph Hart just two years after his conversion. Hart actually opposed Christianity openly before becoming a Christian. In response to John Wesley's sermon on Romans 8:32, Hart wrote, The Unreasonableness of Religion, Being Remarks and Animadversions on the Rev. John Wesley’s Sermon on Romans 8:32. Hart lived a relatively short life dying at the age of 56. Praise God that Hart's eyes were opened and he was given the only fitness that is required for salvation, to feel your need for Him.
