Why Unbelieving?

Why un­be­liev­ing? Why wilt thou spurn

Love that so gent­ly pleads thy re­turn?

Come

ere thy fleet­ing day

Fades in­to night away;

Now mer­cy’s call ob­ey—to Je­sus come.

Why un­be­liev­ing? Wound­ing thy Lord

Grieving His Spir­it

doubt­ing His Word?

Think

’twas for thee He died;

Think of His bleed­ing side;

Now to the cru­ci­fied—to Je­sus come.

Why un­be­liev­ing? Thou canst be blest;

Jesus will par­don

He’ll give thee rest.

Why wilt thou long­er wait?

Haste to the op­en gate

Come

ere it be too late—to Je­sus come.

Why un­be­liev­ing? Tri­fle no more;

Death may be near thee

e’en at thy door.

Come with a brok­en heart

Come

help­less as thou art

Come

choose the bet­ter part—to Je­sus come.
