Lyrics
[Verse 1]
O do not let the word depart,
And close thine eyes against the light;
Poor sinner, harden not thy heart:
Be saved, O tonight.
[Chorus]
O why not tonight?
O why not tonight?
Wilt thou be saved? Then why not tonight?
[Verse 2]
Tomorrow's sun may never rise
To bless thy long deluded sight;
This is the time, O then be wise:
Be saved, O tonight.
[Chorus]
O why not tonight?
O why not tonight?
Wilt thou be saved? Then why not tonight?
[Verse 3]
Our God in pity lingers still,
And wilt thou thus His love requite?
Renounce at once thy stubborn will:
Be saved, O tonight.
[Chorus]
O why not tonight?
O why not tonight?
Wilt thou be saved? Then why not tonight?
[Verse 4]
The world has nothing left to give,
It has no new, no pure delight;
O try the life which Christians live:
Be saved, O tonight.
[Chorus]
O why not tonight?
O why not tonight?
Wilt thou be saved? Then why not tonight?
[Verse 5]
Our blessed Lord refuses none,
Who would to Him their souls unite;
Believe, obey, the work is done:
Be saved, O tonight.
[Chorus]
O why not tonight?
O why not tonight?
Wilt thou be saved? Then why not tonight?
