Come to the Savior!

Come to the Savior, come to the Savior, Thou sin stricken offspring of man

Tune: [Come to the Savior! come to the Savior] (Scottish)
Published in 21 hymnals


Representative Text

1 Come to the Saviour! come to the Saviour!
Thou sin-stricken offspring of man;
He left His throne above To reveal His wondrous love,
And to open a fountain for sin.

Refrain:
I do believe it! I do believe it!
I'm sav'd thro' the blood of the Lamb;
My happy soul is free, For the Lord has pardon'd me;
Hallelujah to His blessed Name!

2 Pardon is offer'd, pardon is offer'd,
A pardon full, present, and free;
The mighty debt was paid When on Calv'ry Jesus died
To atone for a rebel like thee. [Refrain]

3 Plunge in the fountain, plunge in the fountain,
The fountain which cleanseth the soul;
'Tis cleansing far and near, And its streams are flowing here,
O believe it, and thou art made whole [Refrain]
