O do not let the Word depart

O do not let the Word depart

And close thine eyes against the light:

Poor sinner

harden not your heart

Be saved

O tonight.

O why not tonight?

O why not tonight?

Wilt thou be saved?

Then why not tonight?

Tomorrow’s sun may never rise

To bless thy long-deluded sight;

This is the time

O then be wise

Be saved

O tonight.

Our Lord in pity lingers still

And wilt thou thus His love requite?

Renounce at once thy stubborn will

Be saved

O tonight.

Our blessed Lord refuses none

Who would to Him their souls unite;

Believe on Him

the work is done.

Be saved

O tonight.
