1 Wanderer in sinful ways,
Will you go to Jesus?
He will save you by his grace,
Will you go to Jesus?
Refrain:
He is waiting to receive,
If you only will believe,
And to him your heart will give,
Will you go to Jesus?
2 Wanderer on barren ground,
Will you go to Jesus?
Only so can peace be found,
Will you go to Jesus? [Refrain]
3 Wanderer, before too late,
Will you go to Jesus?
Death may seal your awful fate,
Will you go to Jesus? [Refrain]
4 Wanderer, do not delay!
Will you go to Jesus?
Start for heaven—Start today!
Will you go to Jesus? [Refrain]
