Lyics

Hear, O sinner! mercy hails you,

Now with sweetest voice she calls;

Bids you haste to seek the Savior,

Ere the hand of justice falls.

Trust in Jesus, trust in Jesus,

'Tis the voice of mercy calls;

Haste to Jesus, haste to Jesus,

You must perish if you stay.



Haste, O sinner! to the Savior,

seek his mercy while you may;

Soon the day of grace is over,

Soon your life will pass away.

Haste to Jesus, haste to Jesus,

You must perish if you stay;

Haste to Jesus, haste to Jesus,

You must perish if you stay.
