356b. The Saviour calls; let every ear

1 The Saviour calls; let every ear
Attend the heavenly sound.
Ye doubting souls, dismiss your fear;
Hope smiles reviving round.

2 For every thirsty, longing heart,
Here streams of bounty flow,
And life, and health, and bliss impart
To banish mortal woe.

3 Here springs of sacred pleasures rise
To ease your every pain:
Immortal fountain! full supplies!
Nor shall you thirst in vain.

4 Ye sinners, come, ’tis mercy’s voice;
The gracious call obey:
Mercy invites to heavenly joys--
And can you yet delay?

5 Dear Saviour, draw reluctant hearts!
To Thee let sinners fly,
And take the bliss Thy Love imparts,
And drink and never die!

Amen.
