What Will You Now Do With Jesus?

Representative Text

1 What will you now do with Jesus?
Jesus the Savior of men;
Now unto all comes the question,
Will you reject him again?

Chorus:
What will you do, What will you do,
"What will you now do with Jesus?"
Will you reject or take Him tonight,
"What will you now do with Jesus?"

2 God's holy spirit is pleading,
Now at the door of your heart,
Jesus is seeking admission,
Will you then bid him depart? [Chorus]

3 What will you do? will you slight him?
Drive him away from your side?
Jesus who longs to redeem you,
Who for you suffered and died. [Chorus]

4 Still he is patiently waiting,
Tenderly calling today,
Oh do not spurn his kind mercy,
Why will you longer delay? [Chorus]

5 Come, while the spirit is pleading,
Answer this question today;
Open your heart, bid him welcome,
Save me dear Savior I pray. [Chorus]
