Representative Text

1 Many have wandered from Jesus;
Many have strayed from the fold,
Gather them home ere they farther roam,
Ev’rybody can help just a little!

Refrain:
Ev’rybody can help just a little,
Ev’rybody can help just a little;
Gather them home ere they farther roam;
Ev’rybody can help just a little!

2 Will you not hasten His coming,
Will you not work for the lost?
Gather them in from the paths of sin,
Ev’rybody can help just a little! [Refrain]

3 Tell of His love and His mercy;
Tell of His wonderful grace,
Tell how He died ‘mid a crimson tide,
Ev’rybody can help just a little! [Refrain]

4 O, what a wonderful Saviour!
O, what a wonderful Friend!
Tell of His pow’r for the darkest hour,
Ev’rybody can help just a little! [Refrain]
