207 | Why Do You Wait? P.M.
Why do you wait, dear brother,
Oh, why do you tarry so long?
Your Savior is waiting to give you
A place in his sanctified throng.
Cho.—Why not? why not?
Why not come to him now?
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 Savior is longing to bless you,
There’s danger and death in delay.
George F. Root.
