14012. Jesus Is Waiting
1 Jesus is waiting, waiting in sorrow,
Waiting to save you, coming so nigh;
Why will you grieve Him waiting the morrow?
Hear the sweet whisper: Why will you die?
Refrain:
Soon with heart aching,
Trembling and quaking,
Mercy and favor you will implore;
Why should you grieve Him?
Why not receive Him?
Soon the death angel will stand at the door.
2 Jesus is waiting, why will you longer,
Grieving the Spirit, turn Him away?
Vainly you wait that you may grow stronger,
Danger comes nearer while you delay. [Refrain]
3 Jesus is waiting, why will you tarry?
Gratefully hasten, bid Him come in;
Why should you longer mournfully carry
All the dark load and burden of sin? [Refrain]
