Author: J. Gilchrist Lawson Hymnal: Glad Tidings in Song #212 (1921) First Line: O come, weary sinner, while yet there is day Lyrics: 1 O come, weary sinner, while yet there is day,
And wash all your sins and your sorrows away;
Ev’ry sin, ev’ry stain will be lost in the flood,
If you plunge ‘neath the tide of the soul-cleaning blood.
Refrain:
Oh, the cross of Calvary
Will save your soul and set you free;
Make your heart with joy o’erflow,
And cleanse you whiter than the snow.
2 The achings and longings that now fill your breast,
Will give way to a calm and a heavenly rest;
Ev’ry wound that is left by the sins of the past,
Will be healed with a balm that forever shall last. [Refrain]
3 O come to the Saviour, no longer delay,
For He is the Life, and the Truth, and the Way,
He is strong to delivery, almighty is He,
And His Word tells the tidings, salvation is free. [Refrain]
4 Then, come, sinner, come, while He pleads with you now,
Come humbly and down at His feet lowly bow;
You will find more relief at the foot of the cross
Than in all this wide world, all whose joys are but dross. [Refrain] Topics: Invitation Languages: English Tune Title: [O come, weary sinner, while yet there is day]
