1017. Come to the Savior

1. Come to the Savior, make no delay;
Here in His Word He has shown us the way;
Here in our midst He’s standing today,
Tenderly saying, Come!

Refrain:
Joyful, joyful will the meeting be,
When from sin our hearts are pure and free;
And we shall gather, Savior, with Thee,
In our eternal home.

2. Suffer the children! oh, hear His voice!
Let ev’ry heart leap forth and rejoice;
And let us freely make Him our choice;
Do not delay, but come. [Refrain]

3. Think once again, He’s with us today;
Heed now His blest command, and obey;
Hear now His accents tenderly say,
Will you, My children, come? [Refrain]
