Where Will You Go?

William Stevenson • English

Primary Scripture: John 6:68

Verse 1

Glad tiding! glad tidings! the message for thee; In Christ there is healing, salvation is free; The poorest, the vilest, to Jesus may turn,— O where will you go if His mercy you spurn?

Chorus

Where? O where? Where? O where? The poorest, the vilest, to Jesus may turn,— O where will you go if His mercy you spurn?

Verse 2

O sinner, why longer, in folly and pride, Neglect the salvation which Christ doth provide? Not yours is tomorrow, the call is today; This night may your spirit be summoned away.

Chorus

Where? O where? Where? O where? The poorest, the vilest, to Jesus may turn,— O where will you go if His mercy you spurn?

Verse 3

A mansion is waiting and glories untold; The gates are of jasper, the streets made of gold; Its joys are unfading, its beauty endures; O where will you dwell if this home is not yours?

Chorus

Where? O where? Where? O where? The poorest, the vilest, to Jesus may turn,— O where will you go if His mercy you spurn?
