Why not to-day?
Why still delay?
See, he is waiting for you:
Say in your heart,
O sin, depart!
God then your soul will renew.
Why not to-day?
Why not to-day?
Why should you wait till the morrow?
Take him to-day!
He'll be your stay,
Comforting you in your sorrow.
Why not to-day?
Dear Lord, we pray,
Soften each heart in this place;
Soon may they be,
On bended knee,
Asking the gift of thy grace.
Why not to-day?
Why not to-day?
Why should you wait till the morrow?
Take him to-day!
He'll be your stay,
Comforting you in your sorrow.
Why not to-day?
Can you delay,
When such a pardon is free?
Think of him now,
Thorns on his brow,
Dying to save you and me.
Why not to-day?
Why not to-day?
Why should you wait till the morrow?
Take him to-day!
He'll be your stay,
Comforting you in your sorrow.
