Come, ye sinners, poor and needy, Weak and wounded, sick and sore

Author: Hart Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #845 (1873) Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 Come, ye sinners, poor and needy, Weak and wounded, sick and sore; Jesus ready stands to save you, Full of pity, love and power: He is able, He is willing, doubt no more! 2 Ho! ye thirsty, come and welcome, God's free bounty glorify; True belief, and true repentance-- Every grace that brings you nigh-- Without money, Come to Jesus Christ, and buy. 3 Let not conscience make you linger, Nor of fitness fondly dream; All the fitness he requireth Is to feel your need of him: This he gives you, 'Tis the Spirit's glimmering beam. 4 Come, ye weary, heavy-laden, Lost and ruined by the fall; If you tarry till you're better, You will never come at all; Not the righteous-- Sinners, Jesus came to call. 5 Agonizing in the garden, Lo! your Saviour prostrate lies! On the bloody tree behold him; Hear him cry, before he dies, It is finished! Sinners, will not this suffice? 6 Lo! th' incarnate God, ascending, Pleads the merit of his blood; Venture on him, venture freely, Let no other trust intrude; None but Jesus Can do helpless sinners good. 7 Saints and angels, joined in concert, Sing the praises of the Lamb, While the blissful seats of heaven Sweetly echo with his name; Hallelujah! Sinners here may do the same. Scripture: Isaiah 45:22

Come to Calvary's holy mountain

Author: Montgomery Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #846 (1873) Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 Come to Calvary's holy mountain, Sinner, ruined by the fall! Here a pure and healing fountain Flows to you, to me, to all-- In a full, perpetual tide, Opened when our Saviour died. 2 Come, in sorrow and contrition, Wounded, impotent, and blind! Here the guilty, free remission, Here the troubled, peace may find; Health this fountain will restore, He that drinks shall thirst no more. 3 He that drinks shall live for ever; 'Tis a soul-renewing flood: God is faithful; God will never Break his covenant in blood, Signed when our Redeemer died, Sealed when he was glorified. Scripture: Joel 3:18

Come hither, all ye weary souls

Author: Watts Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #847 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 Come hither, all ye weary souls, Ye heavy-laden sinners, come; I'll give you rest from all your toils, And raise you to my heavenly home. 2 They shall find rest, who learn of me: I'm of a meek and lowly mind; But passion rages like the sea, And pride is restless as the wind. 3 Blessed is the man whose shoulders take My yoke, and bear it with delight; My yoke is easy to the neck, My grace shall make the burden light. 4 Jesus, we come at thy command; With faith, and hope, and humble zeal, Resign our spirits to thy hand, To mould and guide us at thy will. Scripture: Matthew 11:28-30

Behold! a Stranger's at the door!

Author: Grigg Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #848 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 Behold! a Stranger's at the door! He gently knocks, has knocked before; Has waited long, is waiting still; You treat no other friend so ill. 2 Oh, lovely attitude! he stands With melting heart and laden hands; Oh, matchless kindness! and he shows This matchless kindness to his foes. 3 Admit him; for the human breast Ne'er entertained so kind a guest; Admit him; or the hour's at hand When at his door denied you'll stand. 4 Art thou a weeper? grief shall fly; For who can weep with Jesus by? No terror shall thy hopes annoy; No tear, except the tear of joy. 5 Sovereign of souls! thou Prince of peace! Oh, may thy gentle reign increase; Throw wide the door, each willing mind! And be his empire all mankind! Scripture: Ephesians 4:30

Come, ye disconsolate! where'er ye languish

Author: Moore Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #850 (1873) Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 Come, ye disconsolate! where'er ye languish, Come to the mercy-seat, fervently kneel; Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish; Earth has no sorrow that heaven can not heal. 2 Joy of the desolate, light of the straying, Hope of the penitent, fadeless and pure! Here speaks the Comforter, tenderly saying, Earth has no sorrow that heaven can not cure. 3 Here see the bread of life: see waters flowing Forth from the throne of God, pure from above: Come to the feast of love; come, ever knowing, Earth has no sorrow, but heaven can remove. Scripture: Psalm 50:15

Retire, vain world, awhile retire

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #851 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 Retire, vain world, awhile retire, And leave us with the Lord: Thy gifts ne'er fill one just desire, Nor lasting bliss afford. 2 Behold and pity from above Our cold and languid frame; Oh! shed abroad thy quick'ning love, And we'll adore thy name. 3 Make known thy power, victorious King, Subdue each stubborn will; Then sovereign grace we'll join to sing On Zion's sacred hill.
