And wait the summons from on high.

God calling yet! – shall I not hear?
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 429 hymnals 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 Ah, yield Him all: in Him confide:
Where but with Him doth peace abide?
Break loose, let earthly bonds be riven,
And let the spirit rise to heaven!
6 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. Topics: The Gospel Call; Holy Ghost Grieved; Repentance Used With Tune: ASLEEP IN JESUS
