Author: Fanny Crosby Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11214 Meter: 10.10.10.11 D First Line: Look not behind thee, O sinner, beware Refrain First Line: List to the warning! No longer remain Lyrics: 1 Look not behind thee, O sinner, beware;
Haste to the mountain, thy refuge is there;
Trust not the voices that lure thee to stay;
Jesus is calling thee, then why still delay?
Refrain:
List to the warning! No longer remain—
Fly from the valley, escape from the plain;
Turn from the voices that lure thee to stay,
Angels are calling thee, then why still delay?
2 Look not behind thee, O lost one, beware;
Why dost thou linger, ’twixt hope and despair?
Danger and darkness encompass thy way;
Jesus is calling thee, then why still delay? [Refrain]
3 Look not behind thee, the tempter is near;
Speed to the mountain, thy pathway is clear;
Jesus who loves thee is calling today—
Come to thy Father’s house, O why still delay? [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: GRAZ
Look Not Behind Thee
