1 O do not let the Word depart,
And close thine eyes against the light:
O why not tonight?
O why not tonight?
Wilt thou be saved?
Then why not tonight?
O why not tonight?
O why not tonight?
Wilt thou be saved?
Then why not tonight?
3 Our Lord in pity lingers still,
And wilt thou thus His love requite?
O why not tonight?
O why not tonight?
Wilt thou be saved?
Then why not tonight?
4 Our blessed Lord refuses none
Who would to Him their souls unite;
O why not tonight?
O why not tonight?
Wilt thou be saved?
Then why not tonight?
