10252. Sinner, Rouse Thee From Thy Sleep

1 Sinner, rouse thee from thy sleep;
Wake, and o’er thy folly weep;
Raise thy spirit, dark and dead;
Jesus waits His light to shed.

2 Wake from sleep; arise from death;
See the bright and living path;
Watchful, tread thy path, be wise;
Leave thy folly, seek the skies.

3 Leave thy folly, cease from crime;
From this hour redeem thy time;
Life secure without delay;
Evil is thy mortal day.

4 O 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.
