[He chills the mortal frame]
He chills the mortal frame,
And takes the breath away;
And if the soul is not prepared
His travel is to shame.
And takes the breath away;
And if the soul is not prepared
His travel is to shame.
For to the bar the man must go,
And stand before his God,
To give a true and accurate account
For all his doings below.
And stand before his God,
To give a true and accurate account
For all his doings below.

[Oh! what will be the hypocrite's plea]
Oh! what will be the hypocrite's plea
When in judgment he shall stand,
And find himself on sinking sand
And no mercy he can see?
When in judgment he shall stand,
And find himself on sinking sand
And no mercy he can see?
Oh! where will be the sinner's stay,
When judgment calls him to the bar;
To see the Judge with glory crowned
And hear him cry “Sinner go away.”
When judgment calls him to the bar;
To see the Judge with glory crowned
And hear him cry “Sinner go away.”
