Representative Text

1 O go and fall to Jesus! go, call upon His name,
No matter how the trouble sore may be;
His promises of mercy in humble boldness claim;
He'll surely turn an ear of love to thee.

Refrain:
O go, and fall to Jesus,
An earnest talk with Jesus makes it right, all right;
Explain it all to Jesus,
An earnest talk with Jesus makes it right, all right.

2 O go and fall to Jesus! and wrestle hard in pray'r;
Make large demands upon His holy love;
Pour out your wants. O brother! into His gentle ear;
His heart of hearts will surely t'ward you move. [Refrain]

3 O go and fall to Jesus! confessing all your sin,
And pleading for His holiness so true;
Forsaking all for Jesus, give to Him ev'ry reign;
He'll surely cleanse and guide and comfort you. [Refrain]
