Representative Text

1 Lost to the sound of the Spirit’s sweet call,
Lost to the gift of God’s “Ransom for all,”
Lost in eternal gloom wro’t by the fall,
Lost! There is pardon no more.
Lost! Lost! Lost!
Lost! There is pardon no more.

2 Lost amid sermons where Sabbath light gleamed,
Lost ‘mid the pleadings of God’s own redeemed,
Lost while the family altar’s light streamed,
Lost! The fond pleadings are o’er.
Lost! Lost! Lost!
Lost! The fond pleadings are o’er.

3 Lost to the home where the holy shall dwell,
Lost to the songs that the ransomed shall swell,
Lost to the city that hears no death-knell,
Lost! Dear ones beckon no more.
Lost! Lost! Lost!
Lost! Dear ones beckon no more.

4 Lost where the billows of torment e’er roll,
Lost where God’s wrath-flame envelopes the soul,
Lost where no gleam of hope comes to console,
Lost in eternity’s gloom!
Lost! Lost! Lost!
Lost in eternity’s gloom!
