“Almost persuaded”
now to believe;
“Almost persuaded”
Christ to receive;
Seems now some soul to say,
“Go, Spirit, go Thy way,
Some more convenient day
On Thee I’ll call.”
“Almost persuaded”
come, come today;
“Almost persuaded”
turn not away;
Jesus invites you here,
Angels are ling’ring near,
Prayers rise from hearts so dear:
O wand’rer, come!
“Almost persuaded”
harvest is past!
“Almost persuaded”
doom comes at last!
“Almost” cannot avail;
“Almost” is but to fail!
Sad, sad, that bitter wail—
“Almost—but lost!”
