Author: Gerhard Tersteegen Hymnal: Living Hymns #212 (1890) First Line: God calling yet! shall I not hear? Refrain First Line: Calling, calling! 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, calling!
God is calling, calling yet!
Calling, calling!
God is calling, 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! 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! [Chorus]
5 God calling yet! I cannot stay,
My heart I yield without delay;
Vain world, farewell! from thee I part;
The voice of God hath reach'd my heart! [Chorus]
