Tune:[What shall I say to-day?]
Composer:W. A. McNeal

38. What Shall I Say To-day?

1 What shall I say to-day?
Shall I the spirit grieve?
Or shall I bid him stay,
And now believe?
The spirits call I know,
He whispers soft and low;
Persuaded shall I go,
My Lord receive.

Chorus:
Jesus now is passing by, passing by, passing by,
Jesus now is passing by,
I'll go out to meet him.

2 What shall I say to-day?
When friends around me meet,
And bid me not delay,
But Jesus seek?
Will he my burdens bear?
Will he my sorrows share?
To ask him shall I dare,
So sinful, weak? [Chorus]

3 What shall I say to-day?
When Jesus is so nigh?
Shall I now turn away,
My Lord deny?
O my poor, sinful heart,
Pierced by conviction's dart,
Trembling I'll yield and start,
For mercy cry. [Chorus]
