35. Where is Thy Soul?

1 Oft hast thou heard a voice that said,
In tones that were soft and low,
Thy Saviour has loved and loves thee yet,
Then why wilt thou slight him so?

Refrain:
Where is thy soul? where is thy soul?
Where is thy soul tonight?
That voice pleads on, pleads patiently on,
Oh, where is thy soul tonight?

2 Oft hast thou heard a warning voice,
That urged thee to fly from sin,
To open the door you long have closed,
And welcome the Saviour in. [Refrain]

3 Oft hast thou heard a tender voice,
When troubled and care-oppressed,
And then, like a weary child, hast sighed
In Jesus to find a rest. [Refrain]

4 Oft hast thou heard a grieved, sad voice,
Entreating thee o’er and o’er;
And if thou refuse to hear it now,
Perhaps it will come no more. [Refrain]

Refrain:
Yield to him now, yield to him now,
Give him thy soul tonight;
That voice pleads on, pleads patiently on,
Oh, give him thy soul tonight?
