List to the Voice

Author: B. B. McKinney Hymnal: The Modern Hymnal #448 (1926) First Line: List to the voice of the Savior Lyrics: 1 List to the voice of the Savior Coming from heaven above, Filled with a message so tender, Filled with a message of love; Softly it speaks to the weary, Tenderly speaks to the sad; Turning their night into morning, Making the lonely heart glad. Refrain: List to the voice, O how tender and sweet, Calling you home Where the ransomed shall meet. 2 List to the voice of the Savior Calling the weary, opprest, Lovingly, tenderly pleading, “Come, and I will give you rest.” Come with your grief and your sorrow, Come with your burden of sin; Trust in the blessed Redeemer, Life everlasting you’ll win. [Refrain] 3 List to the voice of the Savior Calling to you and to me, Calling us over the tumult, Calling us over the sea; Go, for the lost ones are straying, Far from the Savior they roam; “Go in the byways and hedges” Bringing the wanderers home. [Refrain] Topics: Duets; Invitation Languages: English Tune Title: [List to the voice of the Savior]
