Souls in Peril

 

Souls in Peril

Souls in peril, see them now
Sliding into depths of hell,
Jesus saves! Share the news!
Satan shall not prevail!
Girded with our armor on
Let us fight and press ahead,
“Retreat” shall not be heard
Wasted time let us dread.

If we could know agony
That they shall ever endure,
We’d strive more to reach the lost
Before their doom is sure
We would selflessly outpour
Our energy, time, and love.
How the angels rejoice
O’er newborn souls above!

So let us set all aside,
And labor to win the lost.
Loving as Jesus loved
And counting not the cost.
And we who are no better
Than they, save the grace of God,
Might call lost souls to Christ
And reach heavenly sod.
