The Cyber Hymnal ‎#1013

1013. Come, Soul, and Find Thy Rest

1. Come, soul, and find thy rest,
No longer be distressed;
Come to thy Savior’s breast;
O don’t stay away.

Refrain
Prayers are ascending now,
Angels are bending now,
Both worlds are blending now,
Don’t stay away.

2. Dark is the world, and cold,
Her cares cannot be told;
Come to thy Savior’s fold;
O don’t stay away. [Refrain]

3. Come with thy load of sin,
Christ died thy soul to win;
Now He will take thee in;
O don’t stay away. [Refrain]

4. Time, here, will soon be past,
Moments are flying fast;
Judgment will come at last;
O don’t stay away. [Refrain]

5. Come, O we pray thee, come,
Come, and no longer roam;
Come now, and start for home,
O don’t stay away. [Refrain]
