Author: Cecil Frances Alexander Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 985 hymnals Topics: Lent 2 Year A First Line: Jesus calls us; o'er the tumult Lyrics: 1 Jesus calls us, o'er the tumult of our life's wild restless sea, day by day his clear voice sounding, saying, "Christian, follow me." 2 Long ago apostles heard it by the Galilean lake, turned from home and toil and kindred, leaving all for Jesus' sake. 3 Jesus calls us from the worship of the vain world's golden store, from each idol that would keep us, saying, "Christian, love me more." 4 In our joys and in our sorrows, days of toil and hours of ease, still he calls, in cares and pleasures, "Christian, love me more than these." 5 Jesus calls us: by your mercies, Saviour, may we hear your call, give our hearts to your obedience, serve and love you best of all.

Make all our moments fair and bright! Oh, chase the night of sin away! Shed o'er the world your holy light. Used With Tune: WALTON
