Representative Text

1 Why longer travel the pathway of sin?
Jesus is mighty to save;
Come unto Him and a new life begin;
Jesus is mighty to save.

Refrain:
If you only knew the love of Jesus,
If you only knew His saving pow’r,
You would come to Him now,
At His feet would bow,
And be sav’d this very hour,
You would come to Him now,
At His feet would bow,
And be saved this very hour.

2 Why do you linger when sweet mercy calls?
Jesus is mighty to save;
Come while ‘tis day, ere the night-darkness falls;
Jesus is mighty to save. [Refrain]

3 Hear now the voice that in love bids you come;
Jesus is mighty to save;
Think of the joys of the heavenly home;
Jesus is mighty to save. [Refrain]

4 Go not away with a sin-burdened soul,
Jesus is mighty to save;
He can relieve you, and He makes you whole,
Jesus is mighty to save. [Refrain]
