Author: J. Denham Smith Appears in 67 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus Christ is passing by;
Sinner, lift to Him thine eye;
As the precious moments flee,
Cry, "Be merciful to me."
2 Jesus Christ is passing by;
Will He always be so nigh?
Now is the accepted day;
Seek for healing while you man.
3 Fearest thou He will not hear?
Art thou bidden to forbear?
Let no obstacle defeat;
Yet more earnestly entreat.
4 Lo! He stands and calls to thee,
"What wilt thou then have of Me?"
Rise and tell Him all thy need;
Rise, He calleth thee indeed.
5 "Lord, I would Thy mercy see;
Lord, reveal thy love to me:
Let it penetrate my soul;
All my heart and life control."
6 Oh, how sweet ! the touch of power
Comes; it is salvation's hour:
Jesus gives from guilt release;
Faith hath saved thee, go in peace.
7 Glory to the Saviour's Name!
He is ever still the same;
To His matchless honor raise
Never-ending songs of praise.
Amen. Topics: Septuagesima; Parochial Missions Used With Tune: [Jesus Christ is passing by]
