Summer time is swiftly, swiftly passing by, “Harvest time is ended,” soon must be the cry; Thus, O children, far and near, Thus, O children, sweet and dear, Summer time is swiftly, swiftly passing by.
Let us know, dear children, if you now are saved, Thus to see you happy, long my heart has craved; Come now, children, far and near, Come now, children, sweet and dear, Tell us, tell us quickly, are you truly saved?
Can you now, dear children, heartily reply That you’re ready, waiting for the home on high? All you children, far and near, All you children, sweet and dear, Surely now the harvest swiftly passes by.
Will you come to Jesus? Come, O come today, Do not make excuses, seek Him while you may; Hasten, children, far and near, Hasten, children, sweet and dear, Come, O come to Jesus, come without delay.
