Oh, don't you know
That Jesus died
To wash your sins away
Please heed His call
And in sin don't fall
We're getting closer
To the grave each day
We're getting closer
To the grave each day
Sinner man
Won't you stop now and pray
Leave the road of sin alone
Let Jesus lead you home
We're getting closer
To the grave each day
They nailed His hands
There on the cross
On His head
The thorns did lay
Be prepared to go
There's one thing I know
You're getting closer
To the grave each day
You're getting closer
To the grave each day
Sinner man
Won't you stop now and pray
Leave the road of sin alone
Let Jesus lead you home
You're getting closer
To the grave each day
On the Great Judgement day
When life's book is read
There'll be no time to pray
Learn to love and forgive
While on earth you live
You're getting closer
To the grave each day
