LyicsSINNER! rouse thee from thy sleep,
Wake--and o'er thy folly weep;
Raise thy spirit, dark and dead,
Jesus waits his light to shed.
Wake from sleep--arise from death--
See the bright and living path:
Watchful tread that path--be wise,
Leave thy folly--seek the skies.
Leave thy folly--cease from crime,
From this hour redeem thy time;
Life secure, without delay,
Evil is thy mortal day.
Oh! then, rouse thee from thy sleep,
Wake! and o'er thy folly weep;
Jesus calls from death and night,
Jesus waits to shed his light.
