Tune:[The Spirit in our hearts]
Composer:G. F. Root

96. The Loving Call

1 The Spirit in our hearts
Is whispering, “sinner, come.”
The Bride, the church of Christ, proclaims
To all His children, “come.”

Refrain:
Whoever will, whoever will,
Oh, let him freely come,
And freely drink the stream of life,
'Tis Jesus bids him come.

2 To him that heareth say
To all about him, “come!”
Let him that thirsts for righteousness
To Christ, the fountain come! [Refrain]

3 Lo, Jesus Who invites,
Declares, “I quickly come!”
And even so, I wait thine hour,
O blest Redeemer, come! [Refrain]
