| Composer: | Paul Hutchens |
1 Only a step to Jesus
From your sin and shame,
Simply by believing
On His precious name.
Chorus:
Why not take it now?
Why not take it now?
Only a step to Jesus
Why not now?
2 Only a step to Jesus
From your doubt and fear;
If you only trust Him,
They will disappear. [Chorus]
3 Only a step to Jesus;
Why will you delay?
Heed the Spirit’s pleading,
Let Him have His way. [Chorus]
4 Only a step to Jesus;
He is waiting still.
Bring Him all your burden,
Yield to Him your will. [Chorus]
5 Only a step to Jesus;
Tho’ you’ve gone astray,
He in mercy calls you,
Do not turn away. [Chorus]
