Lyics

Haste, O sinner - now be wise,

Stay not for tomorrow's sun:

Wisdom, if you still despise,

Harder is it to be won.



Haste - and mercy now implore;

Stay not for the morrow's sun,

Lest thy season should be o'er,

E'er this evening's stage be run.



Haste, O sinner - now return;

Stay not for the morrow's sun,

Lest thy lamp should cease to burn,

E'er salvation's work is done.



Haste, O sinner - now be blest;

Stay not for the morrow's sun,

Lest perdition thee arrest,

E'er the morrow is begun.
