MUST I GO, AND EMPTY-HANDED?
1. Must I go and
empty-handed?
Thus my dear
Redeemer meet?
Not one day of
service give Him,
Lay no trophy at
His feet?
Refrain
Must I go, and
empty-handed?
Must I meet my
Saviour so?
Not one soul with
which to greet Him:
Must I empty-handed
go?
2. Not at death l
shrink nor falter,
For my Saviour
saves me now;
But to meet Him
empty-handed,
Thought of that now
clouds my brow.
3. O the years in
sinning wasted;
Could I but recall
them now,
I would give them
to my Saviour,
To His will I'd
gladly bow.
4. O ye saints,
arouse, be earnest,
UP and work while
yet 'tis day;
Ere the night of
death o'ertake thee,
Strive for souls while still you may.
