19. Calling Thee Today

1 Beyond the cares of life, and bitter pain,
Beyond the tho’t of wealth and earthly gain,
A voice is calling, calling thee today
From sin and death to quickly flee away.

Refrain:
Calling, calling thee away,
Calling, calling thee away,
From all earthly pain and sorrow,
Sweetly calling thee away.

2 Beyond the fading vanities of life,
Beyond the realm of passion and of strife,
That voice is calling, calling thee today
From all unrighteousness to turn away. [Refrain]

3 Beyond is life and everlasting joy,
Beyond, where naught of evil can annoy,
The Lord now calls thee in his blessed word;
Oh, seek him while his loving voice is heard. [Refrain]
