834. Where Art Thou?

1 O sinner, where art thou?
Thy soul, designed for light,
Is like the raging ocean,
Or storms of sullen night.

Refrain:
Where art thou? Where art thou,
Brother, on life’s way?
Where art thou? Where art thou?
Where goest thou today?

2 Neglecter, where art thou?
Oh, do not be too late!
This call may leave you hopeless,
Tomorrow seal your fate. [Refrain]

3 Backslider, where art thou?
Since thou hast gone astray,
No peace attends thy spirit,
Thou’rt weary all the day. [Refrain]

4 O Christian, where art thou?
Thy happy soul is blest,
While waiting by the river
For thy eternal rest. [Refrain]
