Author: Gerhard Tersteegen Hymnal: The New Praiseworthy #81 (1916) First Line: God calling yet! shall I not hear? Refrain First Line: Calling, oh, hear Him calling, oh, hear Him Lyrics: 1 God calling yet! shall I not hear?
Earth's pleasures shall I still hold dear?
Shall life's swift passing years all fly,
And still my soul in slumbers lie?
Chorus:
Calling, (God is calling yet,) oh, hear Him calling, (God is calling yet,) oh, hear Him,
God is calling yet, oh, hear Him calling, calling;
Calling, (God is calling yet,) oh, hear HIm, calling, (God is calling yet,), oh, hear Him,
God is calling yet, oh, hear Him calling yet.
2 God calling yet! shall I not rise?
Can I His loving voice despise,
And basely His kind care repay?
He calls me still; can I delay? [Chorus]
3 God calling yet! and shall He knock,
And I my heart the closer lock?
He still is waiting to receive,
And shall I dare His Spirit grieve? [Chorus]
4 God calling yet! I cannot stay;
My heart I yield without delay;
Vain world, farewell, from thee I part;
The voice of God has reached my heart. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [God calling yet! shall I not hear?]
God is Calling Yet
