"Almost Persuaded" lyrics
(originally by Marty Robbins)
Almost persuaded now to believe
Almost persuaded Christ to receive
Seems now some soul to say
"Go, spirit, go thy way
Some more convenient day
On thee I'll call."
Almost persuaded. Come, come today
Almost persuaded turn out away
Jesus invite me here
Angels are lingering near
Prayers rise from heart so dear
Oh, wonder [?]
Almost persuaded. Harvest is past
Almost persuaded. Don't come say last
Almost cannot avail. Almost is bound to fail
Sad, sad the bitter wail almost, but lost
Almost persuaded Christ to receive
Seems now some soul to say
"Go, spirit, go thy way
Some more convenient day
On thee I'll call."
Almost persuaded. Come, come today
Almost persuaded turn out away
Jesus invite me here
Angels are lingering near
Prayers rise from heart so dear
Oh, wonder [?]
Almost persuaded. Harvest is past
Almost persuaded. Don't come say last
Almost cannot avail. Almost is bound to fail
Sad, sad the bitter wail almost, but lost
