my decision! 



[esus, Master, stop and listen, 



While I my decision make; 

 I've from me my idols riven, 



Henceforth I of Thee partake. 

 Friends, Companions, reputation, 



Life, emoluments I spurn; 

 Help me in my dedication, 



As I from the worldling turn. 



CHORUS. 



I turn, I turn, now I turn, 



I turn from sin and woe, 

 I gladly turn ! 

 I'll take the pathway of the Lamb, 



Wherever He doth go ! 



Jesus, Master, stop and listen, 



While I my decision make; 

 There's no good on earth I covet, 



Tho' it does my heart-strings break. 

 Ease, affluence, aggrandizement, 



Earth's attractions cannot win, 

 While in this decisive moment 



I choose Christ the Nazarene. 



Jesus, Master, stop and listen, 



While I my decision make; 

 Tho' I see the wicked prosper, 



From my soul the spell I'll shake, 

 I dare trust Thee, Thou despised, 



When earth's offers do entice, 

 For I want the " gold of fire, " 



And am ready with the price.
