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

The world has nothing left to give
It has no new, no pure delight
O try the life which Christians live
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
