52. Jesus Calls

1 Jesus calls, Jesus calls,
Come, weary souls, He bids you come.
Jesus calls, Jesus calls,
The blessed Saviour bids you come.
O anxious ones by cares oppressed
In Him is comfort, peace and rest.
Jesus calls, Jesus calls,
The blessed Saviour bids you come.

2 Jesus calls, Jesus calls,
He bids the little ones to come.
Jesus calls, Jesus calls,
The blessed Saviour bids you come.
The tender feet, along life’s way
Lest they should miss the path and stray.
Jesus calls, Jesus calls,
The blessed Saviour bids you come.

3 Jesus calls, Jesus calls,
He bids the wand’ring ones to come.
Jesus calls, Jesus calls,
The blessed Saviour bids you come.
Those who are broken in the strife,
Have missed the mark, the way in life
Jesus calls, Jesus calls,
The blessed Saviour bids you come.

4 Jesus calls, Jesus calls,
From all the choicest things below.
Jesus calls, Jesus calls,
The blessed Saviour bids you come.
From all earth’s empty dried up springs
To the deep, full, diviner things,
Jesus calls, Jesus calls,
The blessed Saviour bids you come.
