Go Thy Way for This Time

Verse 1

Go thy way, for this time, go thy way; The convenient time may come by and by, But I'll not heed the call of Christ today, Nor listen to His tender cry.

Chorus

Go thy way, go thy way; The convenient time is future yet with me; When the morning hours of life have passed away, And the noonday comes, I'll call for thee.

Verse 2

Go thy way, for this time, go thy way; 'Tis the noon of joyous life now to me; Let me not be hindered now, I pray, When ready I will call for thee.

Chorus 2

Go thy way, go thy way; The convenient time is future yet with me; When the noonday of my life has passed away, In the evening time I'll call for thee.

Verse 3

Go thy way, for this time, go thy way; For the world has thrown its shackles over me, But when death comes knocking at my heart, I'll listen, I will call for thee.

Chorus 3

Go thy way, go thy way; The convenient time is future yet with me; When the evening of my life has passed away, In the night of death I'll call for thee.
