Jesus Is Looking for You

Representative Text

1 No longer delay your returning,
No longer the evil pursue,
God’s spirit is patiently striving,
And Jesus is looking for you.

Refrain:
Your Saviour is looking for you brother,
Your Saviour is looking for you;
O, give him your heart, ere his spirit depart!
Yes, Jesus is looking for you.

2 Your evil companions will lead you
Away from the good and the true;
But follow the voice that is calling—
Your Saviour is looking for you. [Refrain]

3 So patiently Jesus is calling,
And longing your joys to renew,
O answer his gentle entreaty
While still he is looking for you [Refrain]
