Lyrics: 1 God calling yet! -- shall I not hear? Earth's pleasures shall I still hold dear? Shall life's swift passing years all fly, And still my soul in slumber lie? 2 God calling yet! -- shall I not rise? Can I His loving voice despise, And basely His kind care repay? He calls me still; can I delay? 3 God calling yet! -- and shall He knock, And I my heart the closer lock? He still is waiting to receive, And shall I dare His Spirit grieve? 4 God calling yet! - and shall I give No heed, but still in bondage live? I wait, but He does not forsake; He calls me still; -- my heart, awake! 5 Ah, yield Him all; in Him confide; Where but with Him doth peace abide? Break loose, let earthly bonds be riv'n, And let the spirit rise to heav'n! Amen. Used With Tune: HAMBURG
