Almost Persuaded by Philip P. Bliss

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.

Almost persuaded, come, come today;
Almost persuaded, turn not away;
Jesus invites you here,
Angels are lingering near,
Prayers rise from hearts so dear;
O wanderer, come.

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!

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.

Almost persuaded, come, come today;
Almost persuaded, turn not away;
Jesus invites you here,
Angels are lingering near,
Prayers rise from hearts so dear;
O wanderer, come.

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!
