Prepare O Sinner to Be Wise

Prepare O sinner to be wise Do not wait until tomorrow As long as you decide wisdom The more hidden wisdom will be.

Get ready to ask for mercy Do not wait until tomorrow Before thy days on earth are o'er Before this world's sunset arrives.

Prepare, O sinner to return Do not wait until tomorrow So you do not become accurs'd Before tomorrow's day begins.

Prepare to receive a blessing Do not wait until tomorrow So that your lamp does not burn out Before you begin a new life.

Lord, make the sinner to repent Rouse him from his foolish slumber May he not kick against wisdom And be slack concerning his doom.
