African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal ‎#233

233. Whosoever Heareth, Shout, Shout (Whosoever Will)

1 "Whosoever heareth," shout, shout the sound!
Spread the blessed tidings all the world around;
Tell the joyful news wherever man is found,
"Whosoever will may come."

Refrain:
Whosoever will, whosoever will!
Send the proclamation over vale and hill;
'Tis a loving Father calls the wanderer home.
"Whosoever will may come."

2 Whosoever cometh need not delay,
Now the door is open, enter while you may;
Jesus is the true, the only Living Way:
"Whosoever will may come." [Refrain]

3 "Whosoever will," the promise is secure;
"Whosoever will," forever must endure;
"Whosoever will," 'tis life forever more;
"Whosoever will may come." [Refrain]
