1 Jesus is tenderly calling thee home,
Calling today, calling today!
Why from the sunshine of love wilt thou roam
Farther and farther away?
Refrain:
Calling today, calling today!
Jesus is calling, is tenderly calling today!
2 Jesus is calling the weary to rest,
Calling today, calling today!
Bring him thy burden and thou shalt be blest;
He will not turn thee away.
3 Jesus is waiting, O come to him now,
Waiting today, waiting today!
Come with thy sins, at his feet lowly bow;
Come, and no longer delay!
4 Jesus is pleading, O list to his voice,
Hear him today, hear him today!
They who believe on his name shall rejoice;
Quickly arise and away.
