Grace is offered you, dear sinner, In this gospel day of time, Grace to save and keep from evil, And to make your life sublime.
Chorus
Soon the summer will be ended, And the harvest will be o’er; Soon the day of offered mercy Will be past forevermore.
Verse 2
If you live and die a sinner, And reject God’s offered grace, You will cry for rocks and mountains, Thus to hide you from His face.
Chorus
Soon the summer will be ended, And the harvest will be o’er; Soon the day of offered mercy Will be past forevermore.

While in life is time accepted To prepare to meet the Lord, Be assured that He is faithful To fulfill His holy word.
Chorus
Soon the summer will be ended, And the harvest will be o’er; Soon the day of offered mercy Will be past forevermore.
Verse 4
Will this be your lamentation: Through neglect I’m lost at last, For the summer now is ended, And the harvest time is past?
Chorus
Soon the summer will be ended, And the harvest will be o’er; Soon the day of offered mercy Will be past forevermore.
