Stop, sinner, stop, you have wandered astray,
Some evil lies hidden each step of your way;
Where others have perished you thoughtlessly tread,
Don't follow that pathway, there's danger ahead.
Stop, sinner, stop, turn back or be lost
The gulf just before you can never be crossed;
Your soul is in danger, oh, sinner, beware,
Turn back, leave the pathway of sin and despair.
Stop, sinner, stop, take a moment to think,
The chasm is yawning, you're nearing its brink;
Oh, think of the loved ones, whose hearts for you yearn,
They're watching and praying for you to return,
Stop, sinner, stop, turn back or be lost
The gulf just before you can never be crossed;
Your soul is in danger, oh, sinner, beware,
Turn back, leave the pathway of sin and despair.
Stop, sinner, stop in your downward career,
Its end is destruction, oh, why persevere?
The Saviour is calling, how can you delay?
In mercy he warns you, oh, heed him to-day.
Stop, sinner, stop, turn back or be lost
The gulf just before you can never be crossed;
Your soul is in danger, oh, sinner, beware,
Turn back, leave the pathway of sin and despair.
Stop, sinner, stop, turn to Jesus and live,
The master you're serving no respite will give;
There's safety in turning, oh, why do you wait?
Tomorrow it may be forever too late.
Stop, sinner, stop, turn back or be lost
The gulf just before you can never be crossed;
Your soul is in danger, oh, sinner, beware,
Turn back, leave the pathway of sin and despair.
