The Cyber Hymnal ‎#3786

3786. List to the Story

1. List to the story
Of the Christ, who for thy soul
Left all the glory,
All to make thee whole;
On the cross He suffered,
Bled and died on Calvary,
Thus for thee He purchased
Life so full and free.

Refrain
Jesus is calling,
Sweet and low He calls for thee;
Jesus is calling,
Wilt thou come and see?

2. Anthems are ringing
Over earth and sea and shore,
Glad tidings bringing,
Telling o’er and o’er
Of a Savior risen;
For the stone is rolled away,
From the grave’s dark prison
He is risen today. [Refrain]

3. Now He is pleading
Up in Heaven for thee this hour,
There interceding
In His love and power;
Oh, the pardon proffered,
Blood to take thy sin away,
Love divine is offered,
Wilt thou come today? [Refrain]
