- Lo, wisdom crieth in the
streets,
In solemn tones of warning;
Amid the concourse loud repeats,
The end of time is coming.
-
Refrain:
The voice of wisdom cries to all,
The end of time is coming soon;
The voice of wisdom cries to all,
Escape the sinner�s awful doom.
- Hear, O ye craving, restless throng,
The gospel invitation,
It tells you what you�ve needed long�
The touch of God�s salvation.
- Young men, in all your revelry,
Young ladies, proud and thoughtless,
Will you be saved eternally,
Or die forever hopeless?
- You drown your souls in follies deep,
You plunge in sin�s perdition,
Yet wisdom cries upon the street,
In God there is redemption.
- Ye aged sinners surely know
Your end of time is coming,
And youthful summers swiftly flow
Down to the vale of mourning.
- Come, old and young, come, rich and poor,
We have but one probation;
Be wise, repent and sin no more,
Accept a free salvation.
