1 Who shall roll the stone away?
Who shall break the seal?
Who can drive the clouds away?
Wounded hearts to heal?

Refrain:
Only God can lift the weight
That keeps fast the glory gate!
Even now, Lord, while we pray,
Thou canst roll the stones away!

2 Who can lead the weary soul
To the Savior’s cross?
Who can make us joyfully
Count all else but loss? [Refrain]

3 Who can banish unbelief,
As in prayer we bow?
Who can ope the silent lips?
God can—here and now! [Refrain]

4 Who can cleanse our sins away,
By His precious blood?
Only One these things can do—
Christ, the Son of God! [Refrain]

5 Who will come to Jesus now?
Now, this very hour?
He will save you willingly,
Keep you by His power. [Refrain]
