Is it noth¤ing to you that the Sav¤iour
In ag¤o¤ny died on the tree?
He was smit¤ten of God and af¤flict¤ed
To pur¤chase sal¤va¤tion for thee.

Chorus:
In deep ag¤o¤ny, Af¤flict¤ed was ¤He,
When He poured out His soul in His an¤guish,
O soul! He was strick¤en for thee.
Oh what will you do, Oh what will you do,
At the Great Judg¤ment Day you will meet Him.
Oh say, is it noth¤ing to you?

Is it noth¤ing to you that, in sor¤row,
The Sav¤iour is now pass¤ing by?
“I’d have gath¤ered them in, but they would not”–
Ex¤ceed¤ing¤ly bit¤ter His cry.

Is it noth¤ing to you, is it noth¤ing,
Your man¤y trans¤gres¤sions He bore,
When He pur¤chased e¤ter¤nal re¤demp¤tion,
That you might be free ev¤er¤more?

Is it noth¤ing to you He is com¤ing–
The Judge of the quick and the dead?
Then, O how will you stand in the judg¤ment,
When earth and its pleas¤ures have fled?
