Meter:7.7.7.7. with chorus

This hymn has a unique tune

 

 1  While we pray and while we plead,

    While you see your soul's deep need,

    While our Father calls you home,

    Will you not to Jesus come?

 

Why not now? Why not now?

Why not come to Jesus now?

Why not now? Why not now?

Why not come to Jesus now?

 

 2  You have wandered far away;

    Do not risk another day;

    Do not turn from God thy face,

    But today accept His grace.

 

Why not now? Why not now?

Why not come to Jesus now?

Why not now? Why not now?

Why not come to Jesus now?

 

 3  In the world you've failed to find

    Aught of peace for troubled mind;

    Come to Christ, on Him believe,

    Peace and joy you shall receive.

 

Why not now? Why not now?

Why not come to Jesus now?

Why not now? Why not now?

Why not come to Jesus now?

 

 4  Come to Christ, confession make;

    Come to Christ, and pardon take;

    Trust in Him from day to day,

    He will keep you all the way.

 

Why not now? Why not now?

Why not come to Jesus now?

Why not now? Why not now?

Why not come to Jesus now?
