1. Never a day nears its sunset,
Never the sea turneth tide,
But lamps are gone out in the darkness;
Poor sinners for whom Christ died.
For whom Christ died,
For whom Christ died;
How many pass out into darkness,
Poor sinners for whom Christ died?
2. Never a day brings its blessings,
But bids us, with arms stretch’d wide,
Persuade them away from their peril,
These sinners for whom Christ died,
For whom Christ died,
For whom Christ died;
Persuade, lest they pass into darkness,
These sinners for whom Christ died.
3. Say, are you straitened in spirit?
Say, does one passion abide?
Oh say, are you spending your heart’s blood
For sinners for whom Christ died.
For whom Christ died,
For whom Christ died;
Oh, save from the horror of darkness
These sinners for whom Christ died.
4. Oh, the glad light of God’s city!
Oh, welcoming gates flung wide!
God shows His dear love and His pity
To sinners for whom Christ died.
For whom Christ died,
For whom Christ died;
Why need they pass out into darkness,
These sinners for whom Christ died?
