9028. Choose Ye This Day

1 Sinner, choose today your Savior,
By whose blood your soul was bought,
Time is fleeting, hope is cheating,
Do not spend your life for naught.

Refrain:
Listen to God’s voice entreating,
"Harden not your heart today";
Let not Satan’s arts deceiving,
Tempt you longer to delay.

2 Without Christ your life is wasted,
All its riches are but dross,
If you still refuse His mercy,
You must suffer endless loss. [Refrain]

3 Oh, far better you had never
Seen the light of earthly day,
Than to hear the Spirit calling,
While you turn unmoved away. [Refrain]

4 Choose while others then are waiting,
For the choice that you may make,
And while souls are now debating,
Take the cross for Jesus’ sake. [Refrain]
