Oh, what shall I do to be saved
From the sorrows
that burden my soul?
Like the waves in the storm
When the winds are at war,
Chilling floods
of distress o’er me roll.
What shall I do? What shall I do?
Oh, what shall I do to be saved?
Oh, what shall I do to be saved,
When the pleasures
of youth are all fled:
And the friends I have loved
From the earth are removed,
And I weep o’er
the graves of the dead?
What shall I do? What shall I do?
Oh, what shall I do to be saved?
Oh, what shall I do to be saved,
When sickness my strength
shall subdue;
Or the world in a day,
Like a cloud, rolls away,
And eternity opens to view?
What shall I do? What shall I do?
Oh, what shall I do to be saved?
O Lord, look in mercy on me,
Come, come, and speak
peace to my soul!
Unto whom shall I flee,
Blessed Lord, but to Thee?
Thou canst make my poor
broken heart whole!
That will I do! that will I do!
To Jesus I’ll go and be saved.
