1 Wasted opportunities, you can ne'er regain,
why then stand you nothing do, idle why remain;
Wasted opportunities, good you could have done,
Had you not stood idle, some souls you could have won.

Chorus:
Wasted, wasted,
Wasted, wasted
Had you not stood idle, some souls you might have won.

2 Wasted opportunities, days that are no more,
you can ne'er recall them now, they have passed your door;
Then why not improve your time, as the moments fly,
Let not opportunities swiftly pass you by. [Chorus]

3 Wasted opportunities, God hath given man,
talents idle faileth you, to do what you can;
Both in serving Jesus and, reading of His Word,
Telling it to lost ones who, it, has never heard. [Chorus]

4 God holds you responsible, for each hour of waste
up you then your mission fill, do His work in haste;
Speak the word to fallen man, help to save his soul,
Lead him to the Lamb of God, who can make him whole. [Chorus]
