1 How sweet the voice that calls you home,
That bids you to the Savior come;
His love and peace accept today,
Oh, come to Him now while you may!
Refrain:
Come while you may, O, come today!
Come, while inclined by love divine;
For Jesus waits at Heaven’s gate,
You to embrace with love and grace.
2 How tenderly the Master pleads,
O, then His love and truth I’ll heed!
How sad for me now to reject,
His pardon I will not neglect. [Refrain]
3 How often I have turned my heart;
With hope I will from sin depart,
For Jesus loves me still, I know,
I now in faith repent and go. [Refrain]
4 I will not be enticed by sin,
To stay in death away from Him;
I now resolve to do my best,
And in the arms of Christ I’ll rest. [Refrain]
