On Joyful Wing ‎#47

47. Come, ye Sinners

1. Come, ye sinners, poor and needy,
Weak and wounded, sick and sore;
Jesus ready stands to save you,
Full of pity, love and power:
He is able, He is willing,
He is able, He is willing; doubt no more;
He is able, He is willing,
He is able, He is willing: doubt no more.

2. Come, ye needy, come, and welcome;
God’s free bounty glorify;
True belief and true repentance,
Ev’ry grace that brings you nigh,
Without money, without money,
Without money, Come to Jesus Christ and buy;
Without money, without money,
Without money, Come to Jesus Christ and buy.

3. Come, ye weary, heavy laden,
Bruised and mangled by the fall;
If you tarry till you’re better,
You will never come at all;
Not the righteous, not the righteous,
Not the righteous,—Sinners Jesus came to call;
Not the righteous, not the righteous,
Not the righteous,—Sinners Jesus came to call.

4. Lo! th’incarnate God ascending,
Pleads the merit of His blood:
Venture on Him, venture wholly;
Let no other trust intrude;
None but Jesus, none but Jesus,
None but Jesus can do helpless sinners good;
None but Jesus, none but Jesus,
None but Jesus can do helpless sinners good.
