193. Jesus Calls Us

1 Jesus calls us, listen, listen,
See the loving Saviour's charms;
Let the children come, he's saying,
Now we'll hasten to his arms.

Chorus:
O, come, let us go, let us go, let us go,
Hark! how he's calling us,
Hark! how he's calling us
Come, let us go, let us go, let us go,
Come, let us go to Jesus.

2 Jesus loves us how he's longing
Now to fold us to his breast,
Let us go to our dear Saviour,
In his arms we'll sweetly rest. [Chorus]

3 He will take us to those mansions,
Beautiful, prepared on high;
There we'll live with him forever,
Far above the azure sky. [Chorus]
