O God, what shall I say?
My bowels yearn for dying men,
Doom’d to eternal woe,
Fain would I speak, but ’tis in vain
If God does not speak too.
O sinner, sinner, won’t you hear
When in God’s name I come?
Upon your peril don’t forbear,
Lest hell should be your doom.
One more stanza is in the Revivalist. This is a phrygian tune with the second of its scale unused. It reminds one strongly of the melody of ‘Gala Water’, Lyric Gems of Scotland, p. 84.
