30. Jesus Calls

1 Oh, hear Him! tenderly He calls;
Then hasten, and His word obey;
If thou wilt make Him now thy choice,
Thou ever shalt rejoice.

Refrain:
Oh! come to Him now,
He’s with you today;
While Jesus calls,
His gentle voice obey.

2 Your sins the Savior would forgive;
To you He calls “My child, come home!”
Look unto Jesus, look and live;
From Christ no longer roam. [Refrain]

3 Oh, let the Master in today;
He knocks, who’s often knocked before:
Accept your Savior while you may,
And joy forevermore. [Refrain]
