#107WHY SLEEP YE!
Hymn Display
1
WHY sleep ye, my brethren! Come, let us arise,
O, why should we slumber in sight of the prize!
Salvation is nearer, our days are far spent,
O, let us be zealous, awake, and repent.
2
O, how can ye slumber, our foes are awake,
To ruin poor souls every effort they make;
To accomplish their object, no means are untried,
The careless they comfort, the wakeful misguide.
3
O, how can ye slumber! Backsliders look round;
Before the last trumpet, your hearts shall confound;
O, fly to the Saviour, he calls you to-day;
While mercy is waiting, O make no delay.
