Why do you linger?
Why do you linger?
The Saviour is calling today;
O come and believe,
Free pardon receive,
And have all your sins washed away.

O come to Him now while you may;
His hand, stained with blood, holds our mercy,
O why not receive it today? [Refrain]
3 O careless one, great is your danger,
Around you are fetters of sin;
Escape to the only safe refuge,
And Jesus will welcome you in. [Refrain]

But come to Him just as you are;
Look up thro’ the gloom and the darkness
To Jesus, the bright Morning Star. [Refrain] Tune Title: [O why do you linger, my brother]

William J. Kirkpatrick
1838 - 1921 Person Name: Wm. J. Kirkpatrick Composer of "[O why do you linger, my brother]" in Songs of Praise and Salvation William J. Kirkpatrick (b. Duncannon, PA, 1838; d. Philadelphia, PA, 1921) received his musical training from his father and several other private teachers. A carpenter by trade, he engaged in the furniture business from 1862 to 1878. He left that profession to dedicate his life to music, serving as music director at Grace Methodist Church in Philadelphia. Kirkpatrick compiled some one hundred gospel song collections; his first, Devotional Melodies (1859), was published when he was only twenty-one years old. Many of these collections were first published by the John Hood Company and later by Kirkpatrick's own Praise Publishing Company, both in Philadelphia.
