Refrain: Sinner, thy Savior is calling, calling to thee. Accept the sweet pardon He now will give; O sinner, He’s calling thee. 2 Too long you have followed your own crooked way, Till weary and tired of sin; He shows you a refuge of hope today, You’ll find it only in Him. [Refrain] 3 Your loved ones are pleading and praying for you, In tears they have agonized long; The angels are waiting to tell the news, And all will join in the song.
