52. Haste to Save Thy Soul Forever

1. Haste to save thy soul forever;
Hear God’s Holy Word today!
Flee from hell; be thy endeavor
E’er to walk the narrow way.
For the world with evil covered
To the flames will soon be cast;
Up! arise and be delivered
Ere the day of grace is past!

2. Haste and turn yourself to Jesus
Who alone can save from sin,
Ere the time of mercy ceases
And the Judgment Day begin.
You can still be fully pardoned;
Then accept His call today,
Lest your heart by sin be hardened,
Lest you stay ‘neath Satan’s sway.

3. Do not wait until tomorrow;
Then it may be far too late!
Free your heart from idle sorrow,
From the bonds of sin and hate.
Tell the Lord your sad condition
And confess your guiltiness;
Now with deep, sincere contrition
Seek His loving-kindnesses.

4. Still there’s mercy; therefore hasten;
Let not earthly joys delay;
Strive, O strive for your salvation;
Take the path of life today!
You will find, if you believe Him,
That there’s healing in His blood,
That in mercy you’ll be given
Cleansing in its precious flood.

5. have you put on Christ, your Savior
In baptism and by faith?
Never shrink in fear, nor waver
E’en when facing threats of death;
For the foe attacketh ever
Those who have escaped from sin;
Day and night he strives to sever
Christians from their Lord again.

6. Forward ever keep the vision
Of your faith! On! Heavenward!
Fear not Satan’s opposition;
Be a hero for the Lord!
Battle on in fearless measure,
Follow after sanctity!
Well preserve your priceless treasure
Till you gain the victory!
