53. Come to Jesus While You may

1 Come to Jesus, trembling sinner,
With your load of guilt oppressed;
Come to Jesus, he will save you,
Come, and he will give you rest.

Refrain:
Come to Jesus, come to Jesus,
Weary sinner, come to Jesus while you may;
He will save you, he wills save you,
Weary sinner, he will save you, come today.

2 He is waiting, he is ready,
Tender, loving words to say;
Will you not accept his blessing?
Give your heart to him today? [Refrain]

3 Time is flying, do not tarry,
Haste, while it is called today!
Can you spurn his tender pleading?
Can you turn this friend away? [Refrain]

4 Do not linger, do not trifle,
Heed your loving Saviour’s call;
In his tender heart there’s mercy,
In his arms there’s room for all. [Refrain]
