Why do you wait, dear brother ? Oh, why do you tarry so long ? Your Saviour is waiting to give you A place in His sanctified throng.
Why not ?----- Why not ?----- Why not come to Him now ?
2. What do you hope, dear brother, To gain by a further delay ? There's no one to save you but Jesus ; There's no other way but His way.
3. Do you not feel, dear brother, His Spirit now striving within ? Oh, why not accept His salvation, And throw off thy burden of sin ?
4. Why do you wait, dear brother ? The harvest is passing away ; Your Saviour is longing to bless you : There's danger and death in delay.
