21. Choosing

1 You must do something with Jesus tonight,
For or against Him are we;
Choosing to walk in salvation’s pure light,
Or still in darkness to be.

Refrain:
Soul, are you here tonight?
Soul, are you here tonight?
Just now you choose Him, or you refuse Him;
You must do something tonight.

2 You must do something with Jesus tonight,
Still upon trial is He;
Many deny and “away with him” cry;
Neutral you never can be. [Refrain]

3 You must do something with Jesus tonight,
Tomorrow’s sun may not rise;
Now is held out to you blindness or sight,
Choose, and in choosing be wise. [Refrain]

4 You must do something with Jesus tonight,
Some one is waiting for you;
You may lead some precious soul to the light
If you will dare to be true. [Refrain]

5 This will I do with the Savior tonight:
Gladly I’ll open the door;
Bid Him come in as my Guest to abide,.
Leave me alone nevermore. [Refrain]
