Jesus, Gracious One,
calleth now to thee,
“Come, O sinner, come!”
Calls so tenderly,
calls so lovingly,
“Now, O sinner, come!”
Words of peace and blessing,
Christ’s own love confessing!
Hear the sweet voice of Jesus,
Full, full of love;
Calling tenderly, calling lovingly,
“Come, O sinner, come!”
Still He waits for thee,
pleading patiently,
“Come, oh, come, to Me!”
“Heavy-laden one,
I thy grief have borne,
Come and rest in Me.”
Words with love o’erflowing,
Life and bliss bestowing!
Hear the sweet voice of Jesus,
Full, full of love;
Calling tenderly, calling lovingly,
“Come, O sinner, come!”
Weary, sin-sick soul,
called so graciously,
Canst thou dare refuse?
Mercy offered thee,
freely, tenderly,
wilt thou still abuse?
Come, for time is flying!
Haste, thy lamp is dying!
Hear the sweet voice of Jesus,
Full, full of love;
Calling tenderly, calling lovingly,
“Come, O sinner, come!”
