Christ calling yet! shall I not hear

Christ 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?

Calling yet

oh

hear Him!

Calling yet

oh

hear Him!

Christ is calling yet;

Oh! hear Him calling

calling!

Calling yet

oh

hear Him!

Calling yet

oh

hear Him!

Christ is calling yet; oh

hear

Him calling yet!

Christ 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?

Christ 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?

Christ 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!

Christ calling yet! I cannot stay;

My heart I yield without delay;

Vain world

farewell! from thee I part;

The voice of Christ has reached my heart.
