¶Lyrics / Text

1. When pity prompts me to look round Upon this fellow clay; See men reject the gospel sound, Good God! what shall I say? 2. My bowels yearn for dying men, Doomed to eternal woe; Fain would I speak, but 'tis in vain, If God will not speak too. 3. O sinners, sinners, wont you hear, When in God's name I come? Upon your peril don't forbear, Left hell should be your doom.
