Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.452

First Line: Almost persuaded now to believe,

Almost persuaded now to believe ;
Almost persuaded Christ to receive ;
Seems now some soul to say,
Go, Spirit, go Thy way,
Some more convenient day
On Thee I'll call.

2 Almost persuaded, come, come to-day;
Almost persuaded, turn not away ;
Jesus invites you here,
Angels are lingering near,
Prayers rise from hearts so dear;
O wanderer, come !

3 Almost persuaded, harvest is past !
Almost persuaded, doom comes at last !
Almost cannot avail ;
Almost is but to fail !
Sad, sad, that bitter wail----
Almost-----but lost !
