1. “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.”
2. “Almost persuaded” – come, come today!
“Almost persuaded,” turn not away!
Jesus invites you here,
Angels are ling’ring near,
Prayers rise from hearts so dear:
O wand’rer come!
3. “Almost persuaded” – harvest is past!
“Almost persuaded,” doom comes at last!
“Almost” can not avail;
“Almost” is but to fail;
Sad, sad, the bitter wail-
“Almost – but lost”
