8425. Have You Heard The Sobbing?

1 Have you heard the sobbing of a thousand million souls,
Submerged in darkest heathen night?
Vainly groping for the way that leads to hope and peace,
They plead and wait the Gospel light.

Refrain:
A thousand million souls are dying,
A thousand million souls for whom the Savior died.
Can you still deny their plea? Can you longer idle be,
While a thousand million souls are dying?

2 Have you heard the sobbing of a thousand million souls,
By superstitious chains enslaved?
Can you longer be indifferent to their sad estate?
Thro’ Jesus they can all be saved. [Refrain]

3 Can you hear the sobbing of a thousand million souls,
Who seek relief of heart in vain?
Let them have the blessèd Gospel that can freedom give,
And rend the chains of sin in twain. [Refrain]
