221. Too Late

1 Too late, 'twill be for you to cry,
When mercy's day has passed you by!
When solemn night, of dark despair,
Shall come upon you halting there!

Refrain:
Too late, too late, poor trembling soul!
O will this be your late?
Too late, too late to be made whole!
Too late, too late, too late!

2 Too late, when death has barred the door,
Your wailings can be heard no more!
Rejected, there, thy soul will be--
Shut out, thro' all eternity! [Refrain]

3 Will you not heed the voice today,
Inviting you Christ to obey?
And be prepared to enter there,
A pure and spotless robe to wear? [Refrain]

4 No longer, there in sin abide!
This all important step decide!
Come out, where Christian can touch thy soul,
And at this moment be made whole! [Refrain]
