Author: E. E. Rexford Hymnal: Great Revival Hymns No. 2 #203 (1913) First Line: Would you be saved, then why not come Refrain First Line: Now, now is the accepted time Lyrics: 1 Would you be saved? Then why not come
Just as you are, and come today;
Come while the Spirit strives with you;
Come, for there’s danger in delay!
Refrain:
Now, now is the accepted time,
The Savior’s pleading at the door:
“O let Me in! I’ll cleanse your every sin,
And will remember them no more!”
2 Would you be saved? O do not wait!
God calls you —heed his loving voice!
O come before it is too late—
Now is the time to make the choice. [Refrain]
3 Would you be saved? There still is room!
Christ is the Way, the open Door,
That “whosoever will” may come,
And may find life forevermore. [Refrain]
4 O stubborn heart, this hour relent! Cry:
“Lord, forgive these sins of mine!”
And sin-sick, weary and penitent,
Yield to the pow’r of love divine. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Would you be saved, then why not come]
Would You Be Saved
