50. O Come, Come Today

1 Burden’d soul, come seek the Saviour,
Hear Him call, “Come unto Me;”
In His sight find grace and favor,
In His love there’s rest for thee.

Chorus:
Then come, come away,
The Saviour calls, why longer wait?
O come, come today,
For the morrow may be too late,
May be too late, may be too late.

2 Look not at thy guilt or station,
Tho’ unworthy, He’ll receive;
Jesus died for thy salvation,
Waits to bring thee thy reprieve. [Chorus]

3 Full salvation Jesus offers;
Full redemption in His blood;
Come, accept the proffered pardon,
And be reconciled to God. [Chorus]

4 Will you come? while He is pleading,
Will you come and be at rest?
Follow now the Spirit’s leading,
Come, for ‘tis your Lord’s request. [Chorus]
