35d. Listen to the teachings

1 Listen to the teachings
Of the Spirit near,
Calling to salvation,
And from sin and fear;
By them you may gather
Light, and life, and pow'r;
Freedom from the lurings
Of temptation's hour.

2 Listen to the pleadings
Of the Saviour's love;
Calling thee from sinning,
To his home above;
He will save from sorrow,
And the night of death,
And the dread hereafter,
Where is felt his wrath.

3 He is fitting mansions
For his followers true;
There is room now waiting,
Waiting just for you.
Will you taste the raptures
That His saints shall know?
Will you love the Saviour,
And to glory go?

4 Come then, to the fountain
Gushing from his side;
God and heav'n invites you,
Plunged beneath the tide;
There is peace and pardon
For each sin-sick soul;
Hallelujah, glory,
Jesus died for all.
