255. Only a step to Jesus

1 Only a step to Jesus!
Then why not take it now?
Come, and thy sin confessing,
To him, thy Saviour bow.

Refrain:
Only a step, only a step!
Come, he waits for thee;
Come, and thy sin confessing,
Thou shalt receive a blessing,
Do not reject the mercy he freely offers thee!

2 Only a step to Jesus!
Believe, and thou shalt live;
Lovingly now he’s waiting
And ready to forgive.

3 Only a step to Jesus!
A step from sin to grace;
What has thy heart decided?
The moments fly apace.

4 Only a step to Jesus!
O why not come and say:
Gladly to thee, my Saviour,
I give myself away!
