Lost Forever (Warren)

Composer: Barney Warren, 1893

Where is thy hope

poor sin­ner?

What are you go­ing to do?

O

hope is a God-giv­en an­chor

Lavished so free­ly on you;

If it is fixed in the Sav­ior

On that bright shore you will land;

But

if in sin you still lin­ger

Sad your end.

Lost

for­ev­er!

Lost

for­ev­er!

Oh

how sad!

Where is thy re­fuge

sin­ner?

Look where your path­way will end;

Repent

or you’ll per­ish for­ev­er

Awful de­struct­ion’s at hand;

Heaven

or hell you are choos­ing

Fixing and seal­ing your fate;

God and His mer­cy re­fus­ing

Lost! too late!

What can you plead

poor sin­ner

In the great Judg­ment Day?

See

Heav­en now of­fers you fa­vor

Oh

do not cast it away.

Slighted

the warn­ings re­peat­ed

Leave you in Sa­tan’s con­trol;

And with all Heav­en re­ject­ed

Lost your soul.

Where you will go

poor sin­ner?

How will your soul es­cape?

O think of thy lot

when for­ev­er

Cast in the dark burn­ing lake.

If

then you’re lost and for­got­ten

Writhing in flames of des­pair

You will re­mem­ber you’ve chos­en

To be there.
