1 “Sometime,” you say, when the Master is pleading;
“Sometime,” you answer “some other day!”
Grieving the Spirit, for you interceding,
Turning the Saviour away.

Chorus:
Sometime, sometime,
Still undecided;
O why will you wait,
For “sometime,” sometime
Will be forever too late.

2 “Sometime” will pass like the dew on the heather,
“Sometime” will fade in eternity;
“Sometime,” and grace will deny thee forever,
“Sometime” mean never to thee! [Chorus]

3 This is the time and the day of salvation;
“Sometime” the Spirit will strive no more;
Patiently knocking, behold your Oblation!
Will you not open the door? [Chorus]
