Here I lay upon my dying pillow
Round my bed there's loved-one with tear-dim med eyes
They are watching the saddest thing that can helppen
They are seeing a sinner as he dies
As death's cold shadow hovers o'er me
To all sinners I plead with my last breath
Don't shun the word of God, That's what I've done
And tonight, I'm dying a sinner's death
No-one can know until they've faced it
Just how bad dying a sinner can be
I am facing that now, and I plead with you
Don't let it be with you as it has with me
* Refrain
My eyes feel heavy as death claims me
No-one can say that I'm going to rest
When you look upon my face, please have pity
Yes pity, and hope for the best
* Refrain
