[Refrain] 2 In his love like a fire that consumes he passed by. The flame has touched our lips; let us shout, 'Here am I'. [Refrain] 3 He was broken for us, God-forsaken his cry, and still the bread he breaks; to ourselves we must die. [Refrain] 4 He has trampled the grapes of new life on his cross. Now drink the cup and live; he has filled it for us. [Refrain] 5 He has founded a kingdom that none shall destroy; the corner-stone is laid. Go to work: build with joy!

Appears in 437 hymnals Topics: God the Father Attributes First Line: God calling yet! - shall I not hear? Lyrics: 1 God calling yet!--shall I not hear? Earth’s pleasures shall I still hold dear? Shall life’s swift passing years all fly, And still my soul in slumber lie? 2 God calling yet!-- shall I not rise? Can I His loving voice despise, And basely His kind care repay? He calls me still: can I delay? 3 God calling yet!-- and shall He knock, And I my heart the closer lock? He still is waiting to receive, And shall I dare His Spirit grieve? 4 God calling yet!-- and shall I give No heed, but still in bondage live? I wait, but He does not forsake; He calls me still!--my heart, awake! 5 God calling yet!-- I cannot stay; My heart I yield without delay; Vain world, farewell! from thee I part; The voice of God hath reached my heart!
