BE IN TIME
1. Life at best is
very brief
Like the falling of
a leaf,
Like the binding of
a sheaf,
Be in time!
Fleeting days are
telling fast
That the die will
soon be cast,
And the fatal line
be passed,
Be in time!
Refrain
Be in time! Be in
time!
While the voice of
Jesus calls you,
Be in time!
If in sin you
longer wait,
You may find no
open gate,
And your cry be
just too late,
Be in time!
2. Fairest flowers
soon decay,
Youth and beauty
pass away;
O you have not long
to stay,
Be in time!
O I pray you count
the cost!
Eye the fatal line
be cross'd,
And your soul in
hell be lost,
Be in time!
3. Time is gliding
swiftly by,
Death and judgment
draweth nigh,
To the arms of
Jesus fly,
Be in time!
While God's Spirit
bids you come,
Sinner, do not
longer roam,
Lest you seal your
hopeless doom,
Be in time!
4. Sinner, heed the
warning voice,
Make the Lord your
final choice,
Then all heaven
will rejoice,
Be in time!
Come from darkness
into light;
Come, let Jesus
make you right;
Come, receive His
life tonight;
Be in time!
