*Pastor’s Note: A.B. Simpson was a very well respected Canadian preacher, theologian and author who lived from December 15, 1843 to October 29, 1919. My prayer is that you will be blessed and inspired by his poetry as much as I am.
O SLUMBERING SOUL, AWAKE!
O slumbering soul, awake! awake!
Thou’rt sleeping o’er a yawning grave.
O sinful soul, thy sin forsake
While Jesus waits to hear and save!
O sinful soul, for refuge fly!
Thou’rt standing on the edge of doom.
O sinner turn, why wilt thou die?
Oh, turn to God while yet there’s room!
O careless soul, sleep on! sleep on!
But stop and think, and count the cost
Before the day of grace is gone,
And thou shalt wake among the lost.
O trembling soul, be not afraid!
Thy Saviour bids thy spirit live.
On Him thy load of sin was laid,
And He is waiting to forgive.
