Representative Text

1 Still out of Christ! O fearful tho’t;
No change within thy sad heart wrought;
No sweet assurance of His love,
No part in all the wealth above!

Refrain:
Still out of Christ! O come without delay,
He waits to wash your sins away;
Still out of Christ! O come and taste His love,
And He will make you heir to joys above.

2 Still out of Christ, of friends the best,
In whom is found such blessed rest;
In whom ‘tis heaven to believe,
From whom we richest joys receive. [Refrain]

3 Still out of Christ, when burdens press;
Still out of Christ when in distress;
Far from His tender love and care,
Who longs your ev’ry grief to share. [Refrain]

4 Still out of Christ! O soul undone,
Heed now the call from God’s own Son;
Kneel at His throne, His word believe,
And everlasting life receive. [Refrain]
