14036. Jesus Will Save

1 O, soul in the shadows, to Satan a slave,
Accept the dear Savior, He’s mighty to save.
Then why not believe Him? He’s passing this way;
Accept Him rejoicing, He’ll save you today.

Refrain:
’Tis Jesus your Savior that’s passing this way;
Oh, list to His pleading, accept him today.
’Tis Jesus your Savior that’s passing this way;
Oh, list to His pleading, accept him today.

2 Oh, think of His goodness and infinite love,
He came from the portals of glory above
To rescue and save you; then harken and hear
The voice of His pleading, while Jesus is near. [Refrain]

3 Soul, why will you linger, and needlessly wait?
Time swiftly is passing, the hour groweth late.
The day of salvation hath dawned upon you;
Then come to the Savior, so loving and true. [Refrain]
