16023. Jesus Is Calling For You

1 Rich treasures are waiting just over the way
For those who are faithful and true;
Dear sinner, the blessing is ready to­day,
And Jesus is calling for you.

Refrain:
Calling for you, call­ing for you,
Yes, Jesus is calling for you;
Calling for you, calli­ng for you,
Yes, tenderly calling for you.

2 There’s mercy for all, and the Spir­it says “Come,”
And enter the kingdom anew;
The angels are waiting to wel­come you home,
And Jesus is calling for you. [Refrain]

3 Then linger no longer afar from the fold,
Bid sin and its follies adieu;
O why will you wander in dark­ness and cold,
When Jesus is calling for you? [Refrain]

4 O come and be saved, while His mer­cy and love
Your spirit so tenderly woo;
To mansions of glory in Hea­ven above,
And Jesus is calling for you. [Refrain]
