Christ 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?

Christ 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?

Christ calling yet! and shall I give
No heed, but still in bondage live?
I wait, but He does not forsake:
He calls me still; my heart, awake!

Christ calling yet! I cannot stay;
My heart I yield without delay;
Vain world, farewell! from thee I part;
The voice of Christ has reached my heart.
Christ calling yet! I cannot stay;
My heart I yield without delay;
Vain world, farewell! from thee I part;
The voice of Christ has reached my heart.

This song is a gospel song about Christ calling unbelievers but I really feel it speaks to believers personally cause their heart to turn. It spoke to me.

Really encouraging to hear from you saints in West Africa.

Jesus my Lord, my love, who endures my naughtiness at the expense of His life. He is wonderful and marvelous to me?

I really enjoy the stanza 5 of the hymn. Amen the Lord's voice has reached my heart and bid the vain world farewell. Hallelujah
