1 "Vem, vem a Mim!" O Salvador chama
A quem sedento está;
Que venha e desta fonte celeste
O bem desfrutará.

Refrain:
A voz do céu vos chama;
Quereis a Cristo vir?
O Seu perdão e salvação
Podeis já possuir.

2 "Oh, vinde a Mim! Se andais em trabalhos
Tereis descanso assim.
Tomai, pois, sobre vós o Meu jugo,
Sim, aprendei de Mim".

3 Jesus ao coração quebrantado
Jamais rejeitará;
Mas, ai de quem não queira salvar-se,
Pois em pecado está!

4 Encher-vos quer de bênçãos celestes
O grande Salvador;
Podeis ouvir com indiferença
Contar tão grande amor?
