9385. There's A Message From The Lord

1 There’s a message from the Lord,
Will you come?
Hear it sounding from His Word,
Will you come?
Whosoever on His name will believe,
Life eternal shall from Him receive.

Refrain:
He is calling you today, will you come?
To the only living way, will you come?
Will you plunge beneath the flood
Of His all-atoning blood?
Will you be a child of God?
Will you come?

2 He has tarried long for you,
Will you come?
See, His locks are wet with dew,
Will you come?
He alone your many sins can forgive,
Will you look to Him by faith and live? [Refrain]

3 Will you heed the Savior’s call?
Will you come?
To the feast prepared for all,
Will you come?
You will find Him at the cross, waiting there,
With the garment that your soul must wear. [Refrain]
