Refrain: Where is thy soul? where is thy soul? Where is thy soul tonight? That voice pleads on, pleads patiently on, Oh, where is thy soul tonight? 2 Oft hast thou heard a warning voice, That urged thee to fly from sin, To open the door you long have closed, And welcome the Saviour in. [Refrain] 3 Oft hast thou heard a tender voice, When troubled and care-oppressed, And then, like a weary child, hast sighed In Jesus to find a rest. [Refrain] 4 Oft hast thou heard a grieved, sad voice, Entreating thee o’er and o’er; And if thou refuse to hear it now, Perhaps it will come no more. [Refrain] Refrain: Yield to him now, yield to him now, Give him thy soul tonight; That voice pleads on, pleads patiently on, Oh, give him thy soul tonight?
