G                        C        
Why should we tarry when Jesus is

pleading, Pleading for you and for 
D
me
G                        C       
Why should we linger and heed not

 His mercies, mercies for you and 
    G
for me?

Time is now fleeting, the moments

 are passing, passing from you and 
     D
from me

 are coming, coming for you and 
  G
for me.
