Whosoever Believeth

Representative Text

1 From Calvary’s mountain sounding,
What loving words we hear,
The love of God abounding,
Dispelling all our fear.

Refrain:
Whosoever believeth,
Whosoever believeth,
Whosoever believeth,
Hath everlasting life.

2 Whoe’er my word believeth,
We hear the Saviour say,
A pardon full receiveth,
All sins are washed away. [Refrain]

3 O, brother, come and trust him,
O, come to him today;
He’s waiting to receive you,
Why longer then delay. [Refrain]
