O Child Why Not Now?

O child why not now? For you tomorrow it could be too late,
O sinner won’t you listen to that pleading voice within;
For Yahusha HaMashiach came to redeem and save you from your dreadful state,
Yes, for all mankind from that awful curse of death and sin.
Chorus
O child why not now? O child why not now?
For all of Heaven waits while you still delay;
O child why not now? O child why not now?
Why, why do you risk your precious soul for yet another day?
So why not act now? For your days are swiftly passing,
Yes, swiftly, swiftly to your destiny for all of eternity;
Don’t you see all of your strength by yourself is unavailing,
And that your poor heart it yearns to be from sin set free.
So why not act now? For it is for your future, for your liberty,
Why should you linger anymore with no promise for your soul?
Yes, come and accept your Savior’s freely offered mercy,
O do not wait to only die in sin’s control.
So why not act now? As your death it is nearing,
And sooner than you think, your final day will come;
And it so remains your choice to choose with each day passing,
Do listen to your inner voice so Heavenly Messengers could bid you welcome.
Now, all you unrepentant, when you come to face Me on My Judgment Day.
Well, in defense how could you ever prepare for what you are going to say,
For rejecting Me, King Yahusha, your Redeemer and the only Way?
O the shame, the regret when you hear “Depart from me you worker of iniquity for I never knew you.”
Chorus
O child why not now? O child why not now?
Why, why, why do you risk your precious soul for yet another day?
