Laudes Domini ‎#479

479. "Call them in!"

1 Call them in! the poor, the wretched,
Sin-stained wanderers from the fold;
Peace and pardon freely offer
Can you weigh their worth in gold?

Refrain:
Call them in! Call them in!

2 Call them in! the weak, the weary,
Laden with the doom of sin;
Bid them come and rest in Jesus;
He is waiting; call them in! [Refrain]

3 Call them in! the Jew, the Gentile,
Bid the stranger to the feast;
Call them in! the rich, the noble,
From the highest to the least. [Refrain]

4 Call them in! the broken-hearted,
Cowering 'neath the brand of shame;
Speak love's message, low and tender;
'Twas for sinners Jesus came. [Refrain]

5 See the shadows lengthen round us,
Soon the day-dawn will begin:
Can you leave them lost and lonely?
Christ is coming: call them in! [Refrain]
