211. Come Without Delay

1 Hear the call of Jesus,
Now His voice obey;
He’s waiting to receive you;
Come without delay.

Refrain:
Come without delay,
Mercy’s voice obey;
The Spirit now invites you,
Jesus calls today.
Come without delay,
Mercy’s voice obey;
Loved ones now are pleading,
Come without delay.

2 Now the Holy Spirit
Bids you cease to stray;
But He’ll not plead forever—
Come without delay. [Refrain]

3 Time is swiftly passing
From your life away;
The judgment is approaching—
Come without delay. [Refrain]

4 Christ in mercy calleth,
“Sinner, come today,”
But love will not compel you—
Come without delay. [Refrain]
