Almost Persuaded
Almost persuaded now to believe;
1
Almost persuaded now to believe;Almost persuaded Christ to receive.Seems now some soul to say,"Go Spirit, go thy way,Some more convenient dayOn thee I'll call."
2
Almost persuaded, come, come to-day;Almost persuaded; turn not away.Jesus invites you here,Angels are ling'ring near,Prayers rise from hearts so dear;O wand'rer come!
3
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!"
