Expostulation

Millennial Harp (1843), Part II, printed p. 38 (PDF 114). Two staves (treble with the words, bass);
G major, 2/4. The verse (bars 1–7) is repeated (`:‖` at the end of bar 7); the word **Chorus.** is
printed above the staff over the upbeat that follows the repeat, and the chorus runs from there to the
end. Stanzas 2–15 are printed as verse below the music; each of them is sung to the verse and followed
by the same chorus.

This is a different tune from the «Expostulation.» of Part I, printed p. 22.

You'd better come to Jesus, to Jesus,
You'd better come to Jesus in this our day.

*Chorus.*
So come poor sinner,
You can't stand his ire,
You can't stand his ire,
In that great day.

You need a hope of mercy, in this our day

You'd better be a praying, in this our day.

You'd better get religion in this our day.

Come try a bleeding Savior, in this our day.

He offers you salvation, in this our day.

Come, give your hearts to Jesus, in this our day.

You'll see the Judge descending, in that great day.

You'll hear the trumpet sounding, in that great day.

You'll see the dead arising, in that great day.

You'll hear the thunders roaring, in that great day.

You'll see the world a burning, in that great day.

You'll hear the sinners crying in that great day.

You'll hear the saints a shouting, in that great day.

The saints will shine in glory, in that great day.
