The Spirit in our hearts
Is whispering, “Sinner, come”;
The Bride, the Church of Christ, proclaims
To all His children, “Come.”
To him that heareth say
To all about him, “Come”;
To him that thirsts for righteousness
To Christ the Fountain come.
Yes, whosoever will
O let him freely come,
And freely drink the stream of life;
’Tis Jesus bids him come.
Lo, Jesus Who invites,
Declares, “I quickly come.”
Lord, even so; I wait Thy hour:
Jesus, my Saviour, come.
---Alternative verses---
Let him that heareth say
To all about him, “Come”;
Let him that thirsts for righteousness
To Christ the Fountain come.
Lo, Jesus Who invites,
Declares, “I quickly come.”
Lord, even so; we wait Thine hour:
O blest Redeemer, come!
