Not far
not far from the kingdom
Yet in the shadow of sin;
How many are coming and going!
How few there are entering in!
Where voices whisper and wait;
Too timid to enter in boldly
So linger still outside the gate.
Away in darkness and danger
All lost in night and the cold;
There Jesus is waiting to lead you
So tenderly into His fold.
So near the end of the race;
But oh
you may still be forever
Shut out from yon heavenly place!
