Lo! these many, many years;
He has pardon’s your transgressions,
Hush’d your sorrows, stayed your tears.
In return for his compassion,
For his love unbought, unpriced.
For his goodness and his mercy,
Have you bro’t one soul to Christ?
Refrain:
To the highways,
To the hedges,
Find the souls that are astray;
To the highways,
To the hedges,
Bring a soul to Christ today.
2 Brother, think how much he loved you,
How he bore your sin and shame;
Bitter pain and bitter anguish,
You, a sinner, to reclaim.
Angels are not thus exalted,
Cherubim nor seraphim;
In return for such affection,
Have you bro’t one soul to him? [Refrain]
3 Brother, by the love he bears you,
Pure and tender, rich and free;
Finding its most true expression
In the cross of Calvary.
Consecrate yourself in service,
To the Lord who made you whole;
Bring some wand’rer to the Savior,
Rescue an immortal soul. [Refrain]
4 Has he not redeemed and saved you,
Cleansed your soul from guilt and sin?
Rescued you from condemnation,
Brought the Holy Spirit in?
Why not, in responsive feeling,
Filled with gratitude and love;
Save one soul, to add one jewel
To his glorious crown above? [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Brother, you have known the Master]
To the highways
