247. Unsaved!

1 O why will you go away tonight
Unsaved—far away from God!
Why grope in the darkness, refusing the light
Wherein all the saints have trod.

Refrain:
You’re going away unsaved,
You’re going away unsaved,
Though still there is room,
And Jesus says “Come!”
You are going away unsaved.

2 O why will you go away tonight
Unheeding the Spirit’s call?
The table is spread, and the Master awaits
With room at the feast for all! [Refrain]

3 O why will you go away tonight
To wander in pathless gloom?
Come now, ere the Spirit forever departs,
And leaves thee unto thy doom! [Refrain]

4 O why will you go away tonight?
Decide, sinner, while you may;
From life everlasting from friends and from God,
O why will you turn away? [Refrain]
