Arise, he calleth me

Hymnal: Triumphant Songs No.3 #57 (1892) First Line: They spake to him of old who sat in blindness by the way Lyrics: 1 They spake to him of old who sat in blindness by the way, Of Christ the Lord, who, drawing near, could turn his night to day; But still he linger’d, trembling there, till o’er that living sea, The words of welcome reached his ear, “arise, he calleth thee.” Refrain: Arise, he calleth thee, arise, he calleth thee; From all the sorrows of this life, Arise, he calleth thee. 2 And still those words from heaven fall on ev’ry sinner’s ear, And still the Lord delights to bid the trembling soul draw near; The old, the young, the rich, the poor, he calls from wrath to flee, And from the death-like sleep of sin, “arise, he calleth thee.” [Refrain] 3 God saw thee when a great way off; thou had’st no tho’t of him, The door of grace he open threw, and sought to bring thee in, As on e within his Father’s home, as happy and as free, Christ longs to have you with himself, “arise, he calleth thee.” [Refrain] Topics: Invitation Tune Title: [They spake to him of old]
