Representative Text

1 The Savior is calling you, sinner-
Urging you now to draw nigh;
He asks you by faith to receive Him;
Jesus will help if you try.

Refrain:
Jesus will help you, Jesus will help you,
Help you with grace from on high;
The weakest and poorest the Savior is calling;
Jesus will help if you try.

2 Thro' Him there is life in believing;
Sinner, O why will you die?
Accept Him by faith as your Savior;
Jesus will help if you try. [Refrain]

3 The Saviior is calling you, wand'rer--
Points you to mansions on high;
Return to the path that leads homeward;
Jesus will help if you try. [Refrain]

4 There's danger in longer delaying,
Swiftly the moments pass by;
If now you will come, there is mercy;
Jesus will help if you try. [Refrain]
