240. Hark! the voice of Jesus calling

1 Hark! the voice of Jesus calling:
Come, ye guilty, come to me;
I have rest and peace to offer,
Rest, thou labouring one, for thee.
Take salvation,
Take it now and happy be.

2 Yes, though high in heavenly glory,
Still the Saviour calls to thee;
Faith can hear his invitation,
Come, ye laden, come to me,
Take salvation,
Take it now and happy be.

3 Soon that voice will cease its calling,
Now it speaks, and speaks to thee;
Sinner, heed the gracious message,
To the blood for refuge flee.
Take salvation,
Take it now and happy be.

4 Life is found alone in Jesus,
Only there ‘tis offered thee,
Offered without price or money,
‘Tis the gift of God, sent free.
Take salvation,
Take it now and happy be.
