Don’t try to succeed
Without Christ as your friend,
Because if you do, you will fail in the end;
Don’t put off salvation until ’tis too late,
Don’t live without Jesus, the risk is too great.

Refrain

The risk is too great, the risk is too great,
Each day you are facing a terrible fate;
Be saved ere too late, face Heaven’s bright gate,
Don’t live without Jesus: The risk is too great.

Don’t try to go on
Without Christ as your guide,
Lest foes overtake you and evils betide;
He knows the right way unto Heaven’s fair gate,
Don’t walk without Jesus, the risk is too great.

Refrain

Don’t trust to your goodness
To save you at last,
For only the Savior can blot out your past;
So trust Him completely today, do not wait,
Don’t live without Jesus, the risk is too great.

Refrain
