216. Oh, Why Not Now?

1 Some day you will weary of living in sin;
Why not now? Why not now?
Some day a new life you will long to begin;
Then why, oh, why not now?

Refrain:
Why not now, oh, why, not now?
At the feet of the Savior bow;
Some day you’ll plead for pardon you need,
Then why, oh, why not now?

2 Some day you will answer the plea of the Lord;
Why not now? Why not now?
Some day you will work for the blessed reward;
Then why, oh, why not now? [Refrain]

3 Some day you will long to be free from your load;
Why not now? Why not now?
Some day you will start on the heavenly road;
Then why, oh, why not now? [Refrain]

4 “Some day” you may find you have waited too long!
Why not now? Why not now?
While Jesus is pleading, oh, join the glad throng;
Then soul, O soul, come now? [Refrain]
