Have you thought of the future, sinner?
I would kindly ask today,
Have you pondered the fact that quickly
You must pass from earth away?
Have you thought of your sad condition
As "ungodly," "lost," "undone"?
Have you pondered the fact that surely
You must meet the Holy One?
Have you thought of the fatal moment
That's approaching, oh, so fast?
Have you pondered the fact that judgment
Shall be met when time is past?
Have you thought of the glorious Gospel
That is sent to guilty men?
Have you pondered the wondrous tidings
Of a "love" beyond our ken?
Have you thought of the death of Jesus
On the cruel, shameful cross?
Have you pondered the "grace" which led Him
To endure such awful loss?
Have you thought of the blessed offer
Of "eternal life" so free
Through the "finished" work of Jesus,
At this moment pressed on thee?
