1 Come to Jesus, sinner, come!
Come to Jesus, sinner, come!
Come to Jesus, sinner, come!
The sands of life are falling, falling;
Come, receive a heav’nly home!
Come, receive a heav’nly home!
Come, receive a heavenly home!
For ‘tis your Savior calling!

Refrain:
By and by we’ll reach that home,
By and by we’ll reach that home,
By and by we’ll reach that home,
The sands of life are falling, falling;
Weary wand’rer, will you come?
Weary wand’rer, will you come?
Weary wand’rer, will you come?
‘Tis your Savior calling.

2 Come to Jesus, wand’rer come!
Come to Jesus, wand’rer come!
Come to Jesus, wand’rer come!
The sands of life are falling, falling;
Come, from love no longer roam,
Come, from love no longer roam,
Come, from love no longer roam,
For ‘tis your Savior calling! [Refrain]

3 Come to Jesus, brother, come!
Come to Jesus, brother, come!
Come to Jesus, brother, come!
The sands of life are falling, falling;
Come, beneath the sheltered dome,
Come, beneath the sheltered dome,
Come, beneath the sheltered dome,
For ‘tis your Savior calling! [Refrain]

4 Come! a father’s in that home!
Come! a father’s in that home!
Come! a father’s in that home!
The sands of life are falling, falling;
Come, a father’s pleading, come!
Come, a father’s pleading, come!
Come, a father’s pleading, come!
Oh heed your Savior’s calling! [Refrain]
