219 Who'll Be the Next? P.M.
_Delay Deplored._
Who'll be the next to follow Jesus?
Who'll be the next the cross to bear?
Someone is ready, someone is waiting;
Who'll be the next a crown to wear?
Ref.--Who'll be the next? Who'll be the next?
Who'll be the next to follow Jesus?
Who'll be the next to follow Jesus now?
Follow Jesus now?
2 Who'll be the next to follow Jesus--
Follow his weary, bleeding feet?
Who'll be the next to lay ev'ry burden
Down at the Father's mercy-seat?
3 Who'll be the next to follow Jesus?
Who'll be the next to praise his name?
Who'll swell the chorus of free redemption--
Sing, hallelujah! praise the Lamb?
4 Who'll be the next to follow Jesus,
Down thro' the Jordan's rolling tide?
Who'll be the next to join with the ransomed,
Singing upon the other side?

220 Let Him In. P.M.
_The Stranger at the Door._
There's a stranger at the door,
Let him in,
He has been there oft before,
Let him in;
Let him in ere he is gone,
Let him in, the Holy One,
Jesus Christ, the Father's Son,
Let him in.
2 Open now to him your heart,
Let him in,
If you wait he will depart,
Let him in;
Let him in, he is your Friend,
He your soul will sure defend,
He will keep you to the end,
Let him in.
3 Hear you now his loving voice?
Let him in,
Now, oh, now make him your choice
Let him in;
He is standing at the door,
Joy to you he will restore,
And his name you will adore,
Let him in.
4 Now admit the heavenly Guest,
Let him in,
He will make for you a feast,
Let him in;
He will speak your sins forgiv'n,
And when earth ties all are riven,
He will take you home to heaven,
Let him in.
Rev. J. B. Atchison.
221 Almost Persuaded. P.M.
_"Almost," but Lost._ (475)
"Almost persuaded" now to believe;
"Almost persuaded" Christ to receive;
Seems now some soul to say,
"Go, Spirit, go thy way;
Some more convenient day
On thee I'll call."
2 "Almost persuaded," come, come to-day;
"Almost persuaded," turn not away,
Jesus invites you here,
Angels are ling'ring near,
Pray'rs rise from hearts so dear;
Oh, wand'rer, come!
3 "Almost persuaded," harvest is past!
"Almost persuaded," doom comes at last!
"Almost" cannot avail;
"Almo
