1 Hear the precious invitation
To the weary, sin-sick soul,—
“Come to me, I’ll freely pardon,
Cleanse from sin and make you whole.”
Refrain:
Why not give your heart to Jesus,
Why not to His mandate bow?
He is waiting to receive you,
He will save you, save you now.
2 Long and tenderly He pleadeth,
Lovingly He calls today,—
Do not grieve the blessed Savior,
Turn not from His love away. [Refrain]
3 Life is ever speeding onward,
While His call you daily slight;
Like a shadow swiftly passing
Into never ending night. [Refrain]
4 Wait no longer, answer quickly:
“Lord, I gladly come to Thee”
Peace and pardon He will give you,
Set your fettered spirit free. [Refrain]
