| Text: | "Child of sin and sorrow" |
| Tune: | CHILD OF SIN AND SORROW |
| Composer: | S. W. |
1 Child of sin and sorrow,
Fill'd with dismay;
Wait not for tomorrow,
Yield thee today;
Heaven bids thee come,
While yet there's room;
Child of sin and sorrow,
Hear and obey.
2 Child of sin and sorrow,
Why wilt thou die?
Come, while thou canst borrow
Help from on high:
Grieve not that love,
Which from above,
Child of sin and sorrow,
Would bring thee nigh.
