Author: El Nathan Hymnal: Our Praise in Song #9 (1893) First Line: While we pray, and while we plead Lyrics: 1 While we pray and while we plead,
While you see your soul's deep need,
While our Father calls you home,
Will you not, my brother, come?
Refrain:
Why not now? Why not now?
Why not come to Jesus now?
Why not now? Why not now?
Why not come to Jesus now?
2 You have wandered far away;
Do not risk another day;
DO not turn from God your face,
But today accept His grace. [Refrain]
3 In the world you've failed to find
Aught of peace for troubled mind;
Come to Christ, on Him believe,
Peace and joy you shall receive. [Refrain]
4 Come to Christ, confession make;
Come to Christ, and pardon take;
Trust in Him from day to day,
He will keep you all the way. [Refrain]
Why not now?
