Representative Text

1 Jesus is passing this way today,
Call him, weary one;
Ask the Savior to help you,
E’re sinks life’s setting sun.

Refrain:
Passing this way,
Passing this way;
Hear the footsteps of Jesus,
For He is passing this way.

2 Jesus is passing this way today,
Long you’ve turned him away;
He will comfort your aching heart,
Oh, seek him while you may. [Refrain]

3 Jesus is passing this way today,
To his presence flee;
Cry, “Thou son of David,
Have mercy on me.” [Refrain]

4 Jesus is passing this way today,
Passing by your door;
Hasten, call the Savior,
For he may pass no more. [Refrain]

5 Jesus is passing this way today,
Call him while he’s nigh;
Yield yourself to Jesus,
E’re he has passed you by. [Refrain]
