Repent! ’Tis the Voice of Jesus

lyricist: Alfred Ackley, 1910
Composer: Bentley Ackley

Repent! ’tis the voice of Je­sus

Now sound­ing in your ear;

The mes­sage of God rings loud and clear

Now seek Him

for He is near.

Repent! and be ye saved

Repent! and be ye saved

Repent! and be ye saved

Repent! and be ye saved.

Repent! while the Lord in­vites you;

Before the Sav­ior fall;

The wag­es of sin is death to all

Who heed not the Gos­pel call.

Repent! while the Ho­ly Spir­it

Is striv­ing with your soul;

The bur­den of sin on Je­sus roll

Surrender to His con­trol.

Repent! for the days are fly­ing;

The fi­nal hour draws nigh;

No plea­sure have I

saith God on high

In see­ing the wic­ked die.

Repent! for He made atone­ment;

He took the sin­ner’s place;

O turn to the Lord

and seek His face

And trust in His sav­ing grace.
