The Death Line

Author: Addison Hymnal: JBCB1905 #72 (1905) Scripture: Genesis 6:3 First Line: There is a time—we know not when, a point—we know not where Refrain First Line: Oh, come today, do not delay, too late it soon will be Lyrics: 1 There is a time—we know not when, a point—we know not where, That marks the destiny of men to glory or despair; There is a line, by us unseen, that crosses ev’ry path, The hidden boundary between God’s patience and His wrath. Refrain: Oh, come today, do not delay, too late it soon will be; To Jesus fly, for mercy cry, He waits to welcome thee. 2 To pass that limit is to die, to die as if by stealth; It does not quench the beaming eye, nor fade the glow of health; The conscience may be still at ease, the spirit light and gay; That which is pleasing, still may please, and care be thrust away. [Refrain] 3 But on that forehead God has set indelibly a mark, Unseen by man, for man, as yet, is blind and in the dark; And yet the doomed man’s path below like Eden may have bloomed, He did not, does not, will not know nor feel that he is doomed. [Refrain] 4 He thinks or feels that all is well, and ev’ry fear is calmed; He lives, he dies, he wakes in Hell, not only doomed but damned! Oh, where is this mysterious bourn by which our path is crossed, Beyond which God Himself hath sworn that he who goes is lost? [Refrain] 5 How far may we go on in sin? how long will God forbear? Where does hope end, and where begin the confines of despair? An answer from the skies is sent, “Ye that from God depart, While it is called “today” repent, and harden not your heart.” [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [There is a time—we know not when, a point—we know not where]

And the gold grew brighter and yet more bright, But our eyes were so dim with tears, We saw but he fire—not the Master’s hand, And questioned with anxious fears. 3 Yet our gold shone out with a richer glow, As it mirrored a Form above, That bent o’er the fire, tho’ unseen by us, With a look of ineffable love. Can we think that it pleases His loving heart To cause us a moment’s pain? Ah, no! but He saw thro’ the present cross The bliss of eternal gain. 4 So He waited there with a watchful eye, With a love that is strong and sure, And His gold did not suffer a whit more heat Than was needed to make it pure, Dear soul, when God shall smelt thine ore, Shrink not from the furnace heat; ‘Twill only the dross from your heart remove, And leave it pure and sweet.
