Lyrics

Still un­de­cid­ed?
Look to thy heart;
Grieve not the Spir­it,
Lest He de­part;
Why wilt thou long­er wait?
Come ere it be too late;
Jesus at mer­cy’s gate
Grace will im­part.

Still un­de­cid­ed?
Slight not the voice
Breathing so kind­ly;
Make Me thy choice;
Look at My hands and see:
I bore the nails for thee,
I died to make thee free;
Come, and re­joice.

Still un­de­cid­ed?
Time flies apace;
Jesus en­treats thee;
Spurn not His grace;
What if the word were passed,
This night should be thy last?
Where would thy soul be cast?
Where hide thy face?

Still undecided?
What shall we say?
Still un­de­cid­ed?
Yet we will pray:
Oh, may the Spir­it move!
Oh, may our God above
Melt thy poor heart to love—
Melt thee to­day!
