Why Not Now?

While we pray and while we plead

While you see your soul’s deep need

While our Fa­ther calls you home

Will you not

my brother

come?

Why not now? Why not now?

Why not come to Je­sus now?

Why not now? Why not now?

Why not come to Je­sus now?

You have wan­dered far away;

Do not risk ano­ther day;

Do not turn from God your face

But to­day ac­cept His grace.

In the world you’ve failed to find

Aught of peace for trou­bled mind;

Come to Christ

on Him be­lieve

Peace and joy you shall receive.

Come to Christ

con­fess­ion make;

Come to Christ

and par­don take;

Trust in Him from day to day

He will keep you all the way.
