Rose Maddox – How Can You Refuse Him Now lyrics

(Hank Williams)

How can you refuse him now
How can you refuse him now
How can you turn away from his side
With tears in his eyes on the cross there he died
How can you refuse Jesus now?

There's a story old that has often been told
Of how our Saviour died
As they nailed his hands he cried they don't understand
As the blood flowed from his side.

How can you refuse him now
How can you refuse him now
How can you turn away from his side
With tears in his eyes on the cross there he died
How can you refuse Jesus now?

--- Instrumental ---

As he hung there on the tree
He prayed for you and for me
There was no one his pain to ease
Before he died he faintly cried
Father forgive them please.

How can you refuse him now
How can you refuse him now
How can you turn away from his side
With tears in his eyes on the cross there he died
How can you refuse Jesus now?...
