9134. Come Unto Me

1 Sweetly the Savior’s voice is ever calling,
"Come unto Me! Come unto Me!
See, shadows dark around you now are falling,
Come unto Me!"

Refrain:
Jesus, the Lord of all, Oh, hear His loving call:
"Come unto Me, all ye weary ones, oh come!
Come unto Me! Come unto Me!
Come, all ye weary ones, no longer roam."

2 Long have I sought you lost in darkness dreary,
"Come unto Me! Come unto Me!
I am the refuge waiting for the weary,
Come unto Me!" [Refrain]

3 Here is the rest that I alone can give you,
"Come unto Me! Come unto Me!
Come, for My heart is longing to forgive you,
Come unto Me!" [Refrain]

4 Jesus, forsaking all that would deceive us,
Come we to Thee! Come we to Thee!
Safe in Thy loving arms, O Lord, receive us,
Coming to Thee! [Refrain]
