Urge Them to Come

Blackall Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: Living His Life Call to Activity First Line: In the highways and hedges go seek for the lost Refrain First Line: Urge them to come, show them the way Lyrics: 1 In the highways and hedges go seek for the lost, Gather them in to the fold, Was the earnest command that our Saviour divine Taught his disciples of old. Chorus: Urge them to come, show them the way; Tenderly, lovingly, bring them today; Urge them to come, why should they roam? Bring them along to our dear Saviour's home. 2 If the Shepherd we love, we will care for the sheep; Precious are they in his sight; They are out in the desert, they wander alone; Lead them from darkness to light. [Chorus] 3 To the weary and thirsty the Saviour has said, "Come, heavy laden, to me, I will give you to drink of the water of life;" Tell them the fountain is free. [Chorus] 4 There's welcome for all in the kingdom of grace, All who repent and believe; And the souls that have stray'd and returned to the fold, Jesus will gladly receive. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [In the highways and hedges go seek for the lost]
