Appears in 23 hymnals First Line: If the voice of God should come to you today Refrain First Line: Answer "Yes" when he calls Lyrics: 1 If the voice of God should come to you today, “Consecrate to me your all;” If he asked of you the treasures held so dear, Would you answer to his call? Refrain: Answer “Yes” when he calls, For the Lord has work for you to do, Answer “Yes” when he calls, And your service he will bless. Answer “Yes” when he calls, And no matter what he says to you, Do not falter, hesitate, nor ask him “why?” But answer “Yes.” 2 By the still small voice your Maker speaks to you, Are you willing to obey? Would you answer “Yes” and not a question ask If it be to go or stay? [Refrain] 3 Can you now with faith your all to him confide, Trusting in his grace alone? Can you answer “Yes” if God requires of you Ev’ry comfort you have known? [Refrain] 4 Tho’ you have dark hours in Gethsemane, And your eyes are fill’d with tears; When the way seems darkest light is sure to break; Trust in God and stay your fears. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [If the voice of God should come to you today]

C. Austin Miles

1868 - 1946 Person Name: C. A. M. Author of "Answer “Yes”" in Gospel Gems Number 1 Charles Austin Miles USA 1868-1946. Born at Lakehurst, NJ, he attended the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy and the University of PA. He became a pharmacist. He married Bertha H Haagen, and they had two sons: Charles and Russell. In 1892 he abandoned his pharmacy career and began writing gospel songs. At first he furnished compositions to the Hall-Mack Publishing Company, but soon became editor and manager, where he worked for 37 years. He felt he was serving God better in the gospel song writing business, than as a pharmacist. He published the following song books: “New songs of the gospel” (1900), “The service of praise” (1900), “The voice of praise” (1904), “The tribute of song” (1904), “New songs of the gospel #2” (1905), “Songs of service” (1910), “Ideal Sunday school hymns” (1912). He wrote and/or composed 400+ hymns. He died in Philadelphia, PA. John Perry
