almost persuaded’ now to believe

‘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 lingering near,

prayers rise from hearts so dear,

O wanderer, come!




‘Almost persuaded’: harvest is past!

‘Almost persuaded’: doom comes at

last!

‘Almost’ can not avail;

‘Almost’ is but to fail,

sad, sad, that bitter wail,

‘Almost’ - but lost!
