1 Only a step to the Savior,
Sinners, why tarry so long?
Only a step; He is waiting,
Come join the glorified throng.

Refrain:
Only a step, only a step,
Only a step to the crucified One;
Only a step to God’s only Son,
Only a step to Jesus.

2 Only a step; will you take it,
Out of the darkness to light?
Angels will carry the tidings,
If you receive Him tonight. [Refrain]

3 Only a step; come and take it,
Pillow your head on His breast;
He will, if only you’ll trust Him,
Give you sweet rest, happy rest. [Refrain]

4 Only a step; He is calling,
"Prodigal children, come home."
Why will you tarry in darkness?
In Heav’n there’s rest and there’s room. [Refrain]
