XIV. Invitation to Sinners

1 Ho! every one that thirsts draw nigh,
('Tis God invites the fallen Race)
Mercy and free salvation buy
Buy Wine and Milk, and Gospel Grace.

2 Come to the living Waters, come,
Sinners obey your Maker's Call,
Return, ye weary Wanderers, home,
And hear the Gospel preach'd to all.

3 See from the Rock a Fountain rise!
For you in healing Streams it rolls:
Money ye need not bring nor Price,
Ye labouring, burden'd, Sin-sick Souls.

4 Nothing ye in Exchange shall give:
Leave all you have and are behind:
Frankly the Gift of God receive,
Pardon and Peace in Jesus find.

5 Your willing Ear, and Heart incline,
His Words believingly receive,
Quicken'd your Soul, by Faith divine,
An everlasting Life shall live.
