Away from God
so far away
Why will you longer from Him stray?
Sin’s weary way you long have trod
O come today
say yes to God.
Say yes to God
O why delay?
Say yes to God
O come today;
Fly to His arms
why longer wait?
Tomorrow it may be too late.
Away from God
where hope is dead
Where peace and joy have from you fled!
Where you are weary and oppressed
O come to Him for peace and rest.
Away from God
so faint
so weak
O come to Him and pardon seek.
’Tis Jesus calls
why longer stay
While angels wait and Christians pray?
Away from God
away from home
Why will you longer from Him roam?
Why will you spurn His pleading cry
Why will you slight His love and die?
