Dying Millions

Author: John W. T. Givens Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8776 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: O how sweet the voice of Jesus Refrain First Line: O the millions, dying millions Lyrics: 1 O how sweet the voice of Jesus When He spoke our sins forgiv’n; O how precious is His promise, As He lifts us nearer Heav’n. Refrain: O the millions, dying millions, Who have never known the Lord, Shall they hear the voice of Jesus? Shall they die without His word? 2 There are millions, dying millions, In the lands of heathen gloom, Groping, groaning on in darkness, Till they reach a Christless tomb. [Refrain] 3 There are many, many ’round us, Blinded by the blight of sin, Who will never see our Jesus, Till with love their souls we win. [Refrain] 4 Can we live in ease and pleasure, While they perish without God? Fast the night of death is coming, Soon they’ll lie beneath the sod. [Refrain] 5 Let us hasten, then, my brother, Haste to tell them of our God; Tell them of His great salvation, Purchased with His precious blood. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: MAZATLÁN
