1280. Why not come to Jesus?

1 Why not come to Jesus?
There is hope for thee;
There is wondrous pardon,
Offered full and free.
Only trust his mercy,
Ask and be forgiven;
Why not come to Jesus?
He is the way to heav'n.

2 Doubt his love no longer,
Count all else but loss;
Faith and hope grow stronger
Taking up the cross.
'Tis a burden precious,
Giving peace within;
Why not come to Jesus,
And leave thy load of sin?

3 Who has love so constant,
Love so tried and true,
Thus to die for sinners,
Thus to die for you?
At your heart he's knocking,
Turn him not away;
Why not come to Jesus?
O, why not come today?

4 Now the Holy Spirit
Whispers his dear name,
Angels bending near you
Bid you speak the same,
Speak it while he's waiting,
Speak it while you may;
Why not come to Jesus?
He waits to hear you pray.
