Why waitest thou, O burdened soul, When Jesus now will make thee whole ? Give up thy all to His control------ The Life, the Truth, the Way.
He is calling thee, gently calling thee ; He is calling thee, gently calling thee : Oh, come and give Him now thy heart----- He is calling thee to-day.
2. Why waitest thou ? why not believe ? His offered grace with joy receive ; How can you still the Spirit grieve ? Thou hast no time to stay.
3. Why waitest thou ? the days are few, And there is work for thee to do ; Forsake the wrong, the right pursue; Arise ! no more delay.
