The Cyber Hymnal ‎#4952

4952. Oh, Hear the Savior's Voice

1. Brother! hear the Savior calling,
See the sweat-drops on His brow;
Brother! see the teardrops falling,
Harken! He is calling now.

Refrain
Oh, hear the Savior’s voice,
In accents sweet and clear;
He bids your heart rejoice,
You need no longer fear.

2. Brother! see the Savior standing,
Mild compassion in His eye,
Lovingly His arms extending,
Brother! say, why will you die? [Refrain]

3. Brother! hasten thy repenting,
He is ready to forgive;
Brother! hasten thy relenting,
While He gently bids thee live. [Refrain]

4. Brother! hasten His rejoicing,
Angels wait to bless you now;
They are listening for the voicing
Of your earnest, solemn vow. [Refrain]
