Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and Prayers, for Public and Private Worship #161 (1845) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Hasten, O sinner, to be wise Lyrics: 1 Hasten, O sinner, to be wise,
And stay not for the morrow's sun;
The longer wisdom you despise,
The harder is she to be won.
2 Oh, hasten, mercy to implore,
And stay not for the morrow's sun,
For fear thy season should be o'er
Before this evening's course be run.
3 Hasten, O sinner, to return,
And stay not for the morrow's sun,
For fear thy lamp should fail to burn
Before the needful work is done.
4 Hasten, O sinner, to be blest,
And stay not for the morrow's sun,
For fear the curse should thee arrest,
Before the morrow is begun. Topics: Holy Spirit Gospel Call Scripture: Hebrews 4:7 Languages: English
