Author: Crabbe Appears in 122 hymnals Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 Pilgrim, burdened with thy sin,
Come the way to Zion's gate;
There, till mercy speaks within,
Knock, and weep, and watch, and wait:
Knock--he knows the sinner's cry;
Weep--he loves the mourner's tears;
Watch, for saving grace is nigh;
Wait, till the heavenly grace appears.
2 Hark, it is the Saviour's voice!
Welcome, pilgrim, to thy rest!
Now within the gate rejoice,
Safe, and owned, and bought, and blest:
Safe from all the lures of vice;
Owned by joys the contrite know;
Bought by love, and life the price;
Blessed the mighty debt to owe.
3 Holy pilgrim! what for thee
In a world like this remains?
From thy guarded breast shall flee
Fear, and shame, and doubts, and pains:
Fear, the hope of heaven shall fly;
Shame, from glory's view retire;
Doubt, in full belief shall die;
Pain, in endless bliss expire.
Pilgrim, burdened with thy sin, Come the way to Zion's gate
