ALMOST PERSUADED’ NOW TO BELIEVE

‘Almost persuaded’ now to believe;

‘Almost persuaded’ Christ to receive.

Seems now some soul to say?

‘Go, Spirit, go Thy way:

Some more convenient day

On Thee I‟ll call.’

‘Almost persuaded’: come, come today!

‘Almost persuaded’: turn not away!

Jesus invites you here,

Angels are lingering near,

Prayers rise from hearts so dear,

O wanderer, come!

‘Almost persuaded’: harvest is past!

‘Almost persuaded’: doom comes at

Last!

‘Almost’ can not avail;

‘Almost’ is but to fail,

Sad, sad, that bitter wail,

‘Almost’ - but lost!
