May We Never Hear These Words! When in the better land before the bar we stand, How deeply grieved our souls will be; If any lost one there should cry in deep despair, "You never mentioned Him to me." O let us spread the word where ever it may be heard, Help groping souls the light to see, That yonder none may say, "You showed me not the way, You never mentioned Him to me."
