Lyrics & Stanzas
4 portions
Verse 1
While we pray and while we plead, While you see your soul's deep need, While your Father calls you home, Will you not, dear sinner, come?
Verse 2
You have wandered far away; Do not risk another day, Do not turn from God your face, But today accept His grace.
Verse 3
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.
Chorus
Why not now? (Why not now?) Why not now? (Why not now?) Why not come to Jesus now? Why not now? (Why not now?) Why not now? (Why not now?) Why not come to Jesus now?
