1 Sweetly the Saviour
Speaks to the heart,
“Come, O thou weary,
I’ll peace impart.”

Refrain:
Sweetly, O sweetly,
Whispers to thee,
Jesus the Saviour,
“Come unto Me.”

2 Softly, O softly,
Unto the sad,
Whispers the Saviour,
“I’ll make thee glad.” [Refrain]

3 Gently, O gently,
Pleads He with thee,
“I have redeemed thee,
Mine thou shouldst be.” [Refrain]
