Tho’ on­ly a line,
Just a line in­ter­venes
Between your sal­va­tion and you;
Your soul will be lost
If the line is not crossed:
God’s Word to the sin­ner is true.

Refrain

O won’t you step ov­er?
Step ov­er it now,
Believing His Word to be true!
Come then, at the foot
Of the Cross hum­bly bow,
And let the dear Sav­ior save you.

You may have gone far
In the dark and the cold,
Like one in the wil­der­ness lost;
But would you come back
To the true Shep­herd’s fold,
There’s on­ly a line to be crossed.

Refrain

You may have been drift­ing
The world’s stor­my main,
By bil­low and tem­pest been tossed;
But would you re­turn
To the home port again,
There’s on­ly a line to be crossed.

Refrain

Has sin sown the seed
Of des­pair in your soul?
O come with­out mo­ney or cost!
The Sav­ior is wait­ing
To say, Be thou whole;
There’s on­ly a line to be crossed.
