Representative Text

1 There is One who long hath sought you,
Who would bless your needy soul,
Great salvation he hath brought you,
Freely He will make you whole.

Chorus:
He is calling—will you come?
He is calling—will you come?
Jesus loves you, He will save you,
He is calling—will you come?

2 There is One with love undying,
Who Himself for sinners gave,
And upon that love relying,
You shall find Him strong to save. [Chorus]

3 O the depths of love unsounded,
It can reach the deepest woe;
Will you take that love unbounded,
All its blessedness to know? [Chorus]

4 Jesus calls you, hear and heed Him,
From His love turn not away,
He is calling, O you need Him,
Come to Jesus—come today. [Chorus]
