O do not let the Word depart




O do not let the Word depart,
And close thine eyes against the light;
Poor sinner, harden not your heart,
Be saved, O tonight.

O why not tonight?
O why not tonight?
Wilt thou be saved?
Then why not tonight?



Tomorrow’s sun may never rise
To bless thy long deluded sight;
This is the time, O then be wise,
Be saved, O tonight.

O why not tonight?
O why not tonight?
Wilt thou be saved?
Then why not tonight?



Our Lord in pity lingers still,
And wilt thou thus His love requite?
Renounce at once thy stubborn will,
Be saved, O tonight.

O why not tonight?
O why not tonight?
Wilt thou be saved?
Then why not tonight?



Our blessèd Lord refuses none
Who would to Him their souls unite;
Believe on Him, the work is done,
Be saved, O tonight.

O why not tonight?
O why not tonight?
Wilt thou be saved?
Then why not tonight?
