1 The voice of Jesus calls to thee
In midst of toil and strife,
In accents tender offers thee
The promises of life.
He calls thee from a world of care,
He calls, “Come rest in Me”
Yes, ‘tis His gentle voice I hear
Calling now to thee.

Chorus:
Oh hear Him calling, calling thee,
The voice of Jesus calling,
Oh hear Him calling, calling thee,
Oh hear Him calling thee.

2 Forgotten is the simple trust
That childhood bro’t to thee,
Forgotten now the faith that once
Was learned at mother’s knee;
Oh, lost awhile the love of Him
And oft transgressed His will,
Yet He would draw thee back again,
Yes, He loves thee still. [Chorus]
