Tune: | [Leading souls to Jesus who are sad and lost] |
Composer: | Jno. R. Sweney |
1 Leading souls to Jesus who are sad and lost,
Who upon life’s waters have been tempest-tossed;
All the heavy-laden, burdened with their load,
Whisp’ring of salvation through the Lamb of God.
Refrain:
Leading souls to Jesus! oh, may this be mine,
Till I cross the river to that home divine;
Sowing by all waters till the great day come,
When with joy the reapers shout the harvest home.
2 Leading souls to Jesus, telling them the way
Out of nature’s darkness into God’s own day;
Kneeling with the sinner at the Saviour’s feet,
Even angels cannot know of work more sweet. [Refrain]
3 Leading souls to Jesus from their want and sin,
Setting up his kingdom with its peace within;
Till the Spirit witness in them o’er and o’er,
Cleansed are thy transgressions: go, and sin no more. [Refrain]
4 Leading souls to Jesus, as the stars to shine,
In some humbly station, Master, be it mine;
With forgiven sinners, not alone, to stand
When I rise to glory in the better land. [Refrain]
