"Almost persuaded" now to believe;

1."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."
2."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!
3.Oh, be persuaded! Christ never fails -
Oh, be persuaded! His blood avails -
Can save from every sin,
Cleanse you without, within -
Will you not let Him in?
4."Almost persuaded," harvest is past!
"Almost persuaded," His blood avails -
"Almost" cannot avail;
"Almost" is but to fail!
Sad, sad that bitter wail -
"Almost - but lost!"
5.Be now persuaded, oh, sinner, hear!
Be now persuaded, Jesus is near;
His voice is pleading still,
Turn now with heart and will,
Peace will your spirit fill -
Oh, turn today!
