Author: J. W. H. Hymnal: Hymns of the Kingdom #56 (1905) First Line: There's many a soul will perish Refrain First Line: Then why not be a helper Lyrics: 1 There’s many a soul will perish,
For want of friendly aid,
Whom Jesus has died to ransom;
Their full redemption paid!
Refrain:
Then why not be a helper,
Some precious soul to win?
Then why not be a helper,
To bring the lost ones in?
2 The Master hath need of helpers,
He calls for you today;
Then answer the summons gladly,
Thy service He’ll repay. [Refrain]
3 Then rescue a soul for Jesus,
If only one soul it be;
‘Twill bring thee a hallowed pleasure
Through all eternity! [Refrain]
4 If only a cup of water
Be given in Jesus’ name
To one who is faint and weary,
It shall not be in vain. [Refrain]
5 Remember, the greatest valor
Not only claims renown,
But lowliest deeds of kindness
Will gem thy glory crown! [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [There's many a soul will perish]
Why Not Be a Helper?
