Careless soul O heed the warning
For your life will soon be gone
O how sad to face the judgment
Unprepared to meet thy God
Careless soul why will you linger
Wandering from the fold of God
And your life is spent in folly
O prepare to meet thy God
Careless soul O heed the warning
For your life will soon be gone
O how sad to face the judgment
Unprepared to meet thy God
Hear you not the earnest pleadings
Of your friends that wish you well
And perhaps before tomorrow
You'll be called to meet your God
Careless soul O heed the warning
For your life will soon be gone
O how sad to face the judgment
Unprepared to meet thy God
