“Come, ye weary, come to Me!”
Come, and you shall find salvation!
Will you not to Jesus flee?
Refrain:
You never can tell when the Lord will call you,
You never can tell when your end will be;
Cast your poor soul in the sin-cleansing fountain,
Come and get saved, and happy be.
2 Jesus loves you; do not tarry!
Hasten to His side today,
And, by faith on Him relying,
All your guilt will wash away. [Refrain]
3 Oh, ’tis madness to reject Him;
For, when you are called to die,
You will want a loving Savior—
So in time for mercy cry. [Refrain]
4 Oh, this wonderful salvation,
Offered now so full and free,
Seek it, ere ’tis passed forever;
Reconciled to Jesus be! [Refrain] Topics: Warning Used With Tune: [Listen to the invitation:] Text Sources: Timeless Truths (http://library.timelesstruths.org/music/Never_Can_Tell); The Salvation Army, Songs and Music, 1922 (248)
