Don’t Delay

Time is glid­ing swift­ly by

Death and judg­ment draw­eth nigh

To the arms of Je­sus fly

Don’t de­lay.

Oh

you’d bet­ter now de­cide

Mercy’s door is op­en wide;

Quickly turn from sin’s dark tide

Don’t de­lay.

Don’t de­lay

but come to Je­sus;

Don’t de­lay

for He will save you.

Children

Je­sus now is call­ing

Don’t de­lay.

Yes

He cries to one and all

I will save you from the fall;

Haste

then

heark­en to His call

Don’t de­lay.

Children

seek the nar­row way;

Youth and beau­ty soon de­cay;

Here you have not long to stay

Don’t de­lay.

Then how sad will be your state

If you’re left out­side the gate

And you hear the cry

Too late!

Don’t de­lay.

We’ve re­spond­ed to the call;

Christ re­deemed us from the fall

And we’ll crown Him Lord of all

Don’t delay.

Perfect vic­to­ry have we

Thro’ the blood of Cal­va­ry

And from sin our souls are free

Don’t de­lay.
