Author: | Fanny J. Crosby |
Tune: | CALLING TODAY |
Composer: | George C. Stebbins |
1 Jesus is tenderly calling you home,
Calling today, calling today.
Why from the sunshine of love will you roam
Farther and farther away?
Refrain:
Calling today,
Calling today,
Jesus is calling,
Is tenderly calling today.
2 Jesus is calling the weary to rest,
Calling today, calling today,
Bring Him your burden and you shall be blest;
He will not turn you away. [Refrain]
3 Jesus is waiting, O come to Him now,
Waiting today, waiting today.
Come with your sins, at His feet lowly bow;
Come, and no longer delay. [Refrain]
4 Jesus is pleading, O list to His voice,
Hear Him today, hear Him today.
They who believe on His Name shall rejoice;
Quickly arise and away. [Refrain]
