32. Christ Is Waiting to Save

1 Come weary one by sin oppressed,
Christ is waiting to save you,
Come find in Him sweet home and rest,
Christ is waiting to save you.

Refrain:
O come just now, before Him bow,
Christ is waiting to save you,
The matchless One, the Father’s Son,
Is graciously waiting to save you.

2 For you His precious life He gave,
Christ is waiting to save you,
For you He triumphed o’er the grave,
Christ is waiting to save you. [Refrain]

3 For you He died, for you He rose,
Christ is waiting to save you,
For you He conquered all His foes,
Christ is waiting to save you. [Refrain]

4 Come, kneel before His mercy seat,
Christ is waiting to save you,
None ever perished at His feet,
Christ is waiting to save you. [Refrain]

5 O come and taste the sweet, new love,
Christ is waiting to save you,
Come, learn the song they chant above,
Christ is waiting to save you. [Refrain]

6 Believe on Him, your sins confess,
Christ is waiting to save you,
He’ll clothe you in His righteousness,
Christ is waiting to save you. [Refrain]
