1 Art thou now sleeping, sinner friend,
Indiff’rent to thy doom?
Arouse thyself ere comes the end,
The darkness of the tomb.

Chorus:
Awaken now from sin’s dread sleep,
Ere comes eternal night;
Oh, harken to His voice of love,
And Christ shall give thee light.

2 The Great Physician now is here,
And he will heal thy soul;
Forever thou shall praise His name,
While endless ages roll. [Chorus]

3 From out the death of sin arise,
How joyful shall it be
To meet thy Savior in the skies
And reign eternally! [Chorus]
