Representative Text

1 Someone is waiting for words you may say,
Speak them before too late:
Someone is looking to find the true way;
Leading to heaven’s gate.

Refrain:
Someone is waiting, yes, waiting today,
Hasten, O Christian! no longer delay,
Someone is waiting for words you can say:
Speak them before too late.

2 Someone in darkness is watching your light,
O let it ne’er grow dim!
Shine for the Master with radiance bright,
Souls will be led to him. [Refrain]

3 Someone is longing for help you can lend,
Hasten, to-day, be true!
Tell of the Saviour, he is a true friend,
Tell what he did for you. [Refrain]
