Representative Text

1 O troubled heart, why seek in vain
The balm of rest from earth to gain,
While Jesus waits your King to reign,
And all your sins forgive?

Refrain:
Awake, arise, no more delay,
He calls you now, His voice obey;
The loving words He speaks today,
O hear, and you shall live.

2 He calls again, on Him believe,
His gift of grace thro’ faith receive;
Your truest Friend no longer grieve,
But haste your heart to give. [Refrain]

3 To Jesus come, and at His feet
That precious Name with praise repeat;
O trust Him now, and learn how sweet
The peace His love will give. [Refrain]
