Representative Text

1 Have you any time for Jesus,
While the fleeting moments roll?
Is this mortal life so busy
That you cannot save you soul?

Refrain:
Soon the summons from the portals
Of the mansions in the sky
May be sounding your departure;
You must then take time to die.

2 Have you any time for Jesus?
Can it be, life’s journey through,
That you have no time to serve Him
Who has spent His life for you? [Refrain]

3 Time for business, time for pleasure,
Time to revel on in sin—
Will you not take time for Jesus?
Oh, invite Him to come in. [Refrain]

4 If you have no time for Jesus
Ere you pass beyond the blue,
In the resurrection morning
He will have no time for you. [Refrain]

Youthful Praise, 1906 (Timeless Truths)
