Almost Persuaded Now to Believe

Author: Philip P. Bliss Meter: 9.9.6.6.6.4 Appears in 738 hymnals First Line: "Almost persuaded" Now to believe Lyrics: 1 “Almost persuaded” Now to believe; “Almost persuaded” Christ to receive; Seems now some soul to say, “Go, Spirit, go Thy way, Some more convenient day On Thee I’ll call.” 2 “Almost persuaded,” Come, come today; “Almost persuaded,” Turn not away; Jesus invites you here, Angels are ling’ring near, Prayers rise from hearts so dear: O wand’rer, come. 3 “Almost persuaded,” Harvest is past! “Almost persuaded,” Doom comes at last! “Almost” cannot avail; “Almost” is but to fail! Sad, sad, that bitter wail-- “Almost--but lost!" Topics: Warning-Admonition Used With Tune: ALMOST PERSUADED

What mean this eager, anxious throng

Author: Miss Emma Campbell Appears in 189 hymnals Lyrics: 1 What means this eager, anxious throng, Which moves with busy haste along; These wondrous gath'rings day by day What means this strange commotion, pray? In accents hush'd, the throng reply; "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by!" In accents hush'd the throng reply, "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by." 2 Who is this Jesus? Why should He The city move so mightily? A passing stranger, has he skill To move the multitude at will? Again the stirring tones reply, "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by." Again the stirring tones reply, "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by." 3 Jesus! 'tis He who once below Man's pathway trod 'mid pain and woe; And burdened ones, where'er He came, Brought out their sick, and deaf, and lame; The blind rejoiced to hear the cry: "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by." The blind rejoiced to hear the cry: "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by." 4 Ho! all ye heavy-laden, come; Here's pardon, comfort, rest, and home, Ye wanderers from a Father's face, Return, accept His proffered grace. Ye tempted ones, there's refuge nigh: "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by." Ye tempted ones, there's refuge nigh: "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by." 5 But if you still this call refuse, And all His wondrous love abuse, Soon will He sadly from you turn, Your bitter prayer for pardon spurn. "Too late! too late!" will be the cry: "Jesus of Nazareth has passed by." "Too late! too late!" will be the cry: "Jesus of Nazareth has passed by." Used With Tune: ALMOST PERSUADED

Why Unbelieving?

Meter: 9.9.12.10 Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: Why unbelieving? Why wilt thou spurn Lyrics: 1. Why unbelieving? Why wilt thou spurn Love that so gently pleads thy return? Come, ere thy fleeting day Fades into night away; Now mercy’s call obey—to Jesus come. 2. Why unbelieving? Wounding thy Lord, Grieving His Spirit, doubting His Word? Think, ’twas for thee He died; Think of His bleeding side; Now to the crucified—to Jesus come. 3. Why unbelieving? Thou canst be blest; Jesus will pardon, He’ll give thee rest. Why wilt thou longer wait? Haste to the open gate, Come, ere it be too late—to Jesus come. 4. Why unbelieving? Trifle no more; Death may be near thee, e’en at thy door. Come with a broken heart, Come, helpless as thou art, Come, choose the better part—to Jesus come.
