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?
Chorus:
Calling, oh, hear Him calling,
(God is calling yet, God is calling yet,)
Oh, hear Him, God is calling yet,
Oh, hear Him calling, calling;
Calling, Oh, hear Him, calling, oh, hear Him,
(God is calling yet, God is calling yet,)
God is calling yet, oh hear Him calling yet.
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 has reached my heart.
