Sheet music

  1. 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 dayOn Thee I'll call."
  2. 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. 3"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!"
