As the closing hour draws nigh!
Few are Israel’s sons, and weak;
Thee, in penitence, they seek.
O regard their anguished cry,
As the closing hour draws nigh!
Souls in grief before Thee poured,
Agonize for deed and word;
‘We have sinned. Forgive!’ they cry,
As the closing hour draws nigh!
Heal them! Let their trust in Thee
