Seek, My Soul

Henry Ustick Onderdonk • English

Primary Scripture: Luke 13:24-27

Verse 1

Seek, my soul, the narrow gate, Enter ere it be too late; Many ask to enter there When too late to offer prayer.

Verse 2

God from mercy's seat shall rise, And for ever bar the skies: Then though sinners cry without, He will say, "I know you not."

Verse 3

Mournfully will they exclaim; "Lord, we have professed Thy Name; We have ate with Thee, and heard Heavenly teaching in Thy word."

Verse 4

Vain, alas! will be their plea, Workers of iniquity; Sad their everlasting lot; Christ will say, "I know you not."
