THE SINNER AND THE SONG




A sinner was wand’ring at eventide,
His tempter was watching
close by at his side;
In his heart raged a battle
for right against wrong—
But hark! From the church
he hears the sweet song:


He stopped and listened
to ev’ry sweet chord,
He remembered the time
he once loved the Lord:
Come on! Says the tempter,
come on with the throng—
But hark! From the church
again swells the song:


O tempter, depart,
I have served thee too long;
I fly to the Saviour,
He dwells in that song:
O Lord, can it be,
that a sinner like me
May find a sweet refuge
by coming to Thee?
