237. Why Not To-day?

1 Why not today? The Saviour calls thee now;
Why not today in faith and meekness bow?
Why not today? He mercy waits to show;
Christ alone can save and bless thee,
Why not today?

Refrain:
Why not today, O sinner!
Why not today?
Jesus is calling to you, come while you may!
Heed not the siren call of sin, but away;
Why not today, O brother,
Why not today?

2 Why not today? The Saviour calls thee now;
Why not today His pow'r of service know?
Why not today, since thou His work wouldst do?
Hear Him how He pleads and begs thee;
Why not today? [Refrain]

3 Why not today? The Spirit waits to bless;
Why not today be filled with righteousness?
Why not today the world with Christ impress?
Wouldst thou help the Saviour, brother,
Why not today? [Refrain]
