1 Jesus, the Savior, is calling for thee,
Tenderly pleading “O come unto me,”
Accept the pardon, O do not delay,
Don’t turn the Savior away.

Refrain:
Don’t turn the Savior away,
Don’t turn the Savior away,
He will pardon your sin if you let Him come in,
O don’t turn the Savior away.

2 Wonderful treasure so precious and free,
Jesus in mercy now offers to thee,
Heed now the call and accept while you may,
Don’t turn the Savior away. [Refrain]

3 Come to Him now and the pardon receive,
He will forgive if you only believe,
Open your heart and admit Him I pray,
Don’t turn the Savior away. [Refrain]

4 Jesus is calling, O why will you stay?
Come to the Savior, accept Him today,
Let Him come in ere He leaves you for aye,
Don’t turn the Savior away. [Refrain]
