147. Mercy for Sinners who obey the Call of Jesus

1 The Savior calls; let every ear
Attend the heav’nly sound.
Ye doubting souls! dismiss your fear;
Hope smiles reviving round.

2 For ev'ry thirsty longing heart
Here streams of bounty flow;
And life, and health, and bliss impart,
To banish mortal wo.

3 Here springs of sacred pleasures rise,
To ease your ev'ry pain;
Immortal fountain! full supplies!
Nor shall you thirst in vain.

4 Ye sinners! come, ’tis mercy’s voice;
The gracious call obey;
Mercy invites to heavenly joys:--
And can you yet delay?

5 Dear Savior! draw reluctant hearts;
To thee let sinners fly
And take the bliss thy love imparts
And drink and never die.
