Not far, not far from the kingdom

Appears in 46 hymnals Matching Instances: 5 Lyrics: 1 Not far, not far from the kingdom, Yet in the shadow of sin; How many are coming and going, How few are entering in! Chorus: Not far, not far from the kingdom, Yet lingering still at the gateway; O wait not to get nearer, But enter while you may. 2 Not far, not far from the gateway Where voices whisper and wait; But bearing to enter in boldly, They linger still at the gate. [Chorus] 3 They catch the strains of music That floats so sweetly along; Tho' knowing the song they are singing, Yet joining not in the song. [Chorus] 4 They're in the dark and the danger, They're in the night and the cold, Tho' Jesus is longing to lead them So kindly into his fold. [Chorus] Topics: Bible Songs Invitation Scripture: 2 Corinthians 6:2 Used With Tune: NOT FAR FROM THE KINGDOM Text Sources: English
