835. Sinner, You Must Die

1 Have you heard the gospel, sinner?
Do you know that Jesus died?
Can’t you feel His wooing Spirit?
He is standing by your side.

Refrain:
Will you come while He is calling?
Sinner, you must die—
Down to awful darkness falling,
If you pass His mercy by.

2 He is blessing you with mercy,
See, your life is in His hands;
Will you come and do your duty?
Yield yourself to His commands. Refrain]

3 Health and strength are daily given,
Food and raiment all the time,
Every blessing under heaven
Comes to you in love sublime. [Refrain]

4 Will you lose your soul forever
In the dark domain of sin?
Heaven’s door will never, never
Open there to let you in. [Refrain]
