  1. 1God calling yet! -- shall I not hear?
  2. Earth's pleasures shall I still hold dear?
  3. Shall life's swift passing years all fly,
  4. And still my soul in slumber lie?
  5. 2God calling yet! -- shall I not rise?
  6. Can I His loving voice despise,
  7. And basely His kind care repay?
  8. He calls me still; can I delay?
  9. 3God calling yet! -- and shall He knock,
  10. And I my heart the closer lock?
  11. He still is waiting to receive,
  12. And shall I dare His Spirit grieve?
  13. 4God calling yet! - and shall I give
  14. No heed, but still in bondage live?
  15. I wait, but He does not forsake;
  16. He calls me still; -- my heart, awake!
  17. 5Ah, yield Him all; in Him confide;
  18. Where but with Him doth peace abide?
  19. Break loose, let earthly bonds be riv'n,
  20. And let the spirit rise to heav'n!
  21. 6Amen.
