Almost persuaded now to believe; Almost persuaded Christ to receive;Seems now some soul to say, Go, Spirit, go Thy way,Some more convenient dayOn Thee I ll call. Almost persuaded, come, come today; Almost persuaded, turn not away;Jesus invites you here,Angels are lingering nearPrayers rise from hearts so dear;O wanderer, come! Almost persuaded, harvest is past! Almost persuaded, doom comes at last! Almost cannot avail; Almost is but to fail!Sad, sad, that bitter wail Almost, but lost!
