Lost Forever

Author: B. E. W. Meter: 7.7.8.7.8.7.8.3 with refrain Appears in 12 hymnals First Line: Where is thy hope, poor sinner? Refrain First Line: Lost, forever! Lost, forever! Lyrics: 1 Where is thy hope, poor sinner? What are you going to do? Hope is a God-given anchor, Lavished so freely on you; If it is fixed in the Savior, On that bright shore you will land, But if in sin you still linger, Sad your end. Refrain: Lost, forever! Lost, forever! Oh, how sad! 2 Where is thy refuge, sinner? Look where your pathway will end; Repent, or you’ll perish forever, Awful destruction’s at hand; Heaven or hell you are choosing, Fixing and sealing your fate, God and His mercy refusing, Lost! Too late! 3 What can you plead, poor sinner, In the great judgment day? Heaven now offers you favor, Oh, do not cast it away; Slighted the warnings repeated, Leave you in Satan’s control; And with all heaven rejected, Lost, your soul. 4 Where will you go, poor sinner? How will your soul escape? Think of thy lot, when, forever, Cast in the dark, burning lake; If then you’re lost and forgotten, Writhing in flames of despair, You will remember you’ve chosen To be there.
