174. Oh List to the Call!

1 Oh list to the call, He is yearning for thee,
Obey Him, and from all thy burdens be free;
He knows of thy cares, and His infinite love
Will tenderly lead thee to mansions above.

Chorus:
Oh list to the call,
He is pleading for all;
The Savior is near,
Then why should we fear,
Oh list to His call, for the Savior is near,
He gladly would heal thee, thy soul He will cheer.

2 Oh list to the call, He is pleading for you,
His love will prevail, and His promise is true;
He stands at the gate, there to welcome us all,
Oh list to His pleading, oh list to the call. [Chorus]

3 Oh list to the call, and in Jesus confide,
In faith, love and hope ever walk by His side;
Cling close to the Savior, He'll never forsake,
For all who will trust Him His love shall partake. [Chorus]
