Come and Ask Jesus to Save You

Author: Abbie Mills Hymnal: Showers of Blessing #83 (1888) First Line: Would you find the way to heaven Refrain First Line: Come to the fountain of mercy today Lyrics: 1 Would you find the way to heaven? Come and ask Jesus to save you; Would you know your sins forgiven? Come and ask Jesus to save you. He will light and joy impart To your dark and weary heart, He will bid your sin depart, Come and ask Jesus to save you. Refrain: Come to the fountain of mercy today, Come and your sins shall be taken away; Come to the Saviour and earnestly pray, Jesus will certainly save you. 2 Would you treasures have above? Come and ask Jesus to save you; Would you know the wealth of love? Come and ask Jesus to save you. Come, your loving Father meet; See, he waits his child to greet; Hasten on with eager feet; Come and ask Jesus to save you. [Refrain] 3 Would you from your chains be free? Come and ask Jesus to save you; Would you cease a slave to be? Come and ask Jesus to save you. He is every captive’s friend; If on him you now depend, His right arm will you defend, Come and ask Jesus to save you. [Refrain] 4 Would you gain yon heavenly shore? Come and ask Jesus to save you; Would you join those gone before? Come and ask Jesus to save you. He that lives who once was dead Bore the cross; for you he bled; He can soothe your dying bed, Come and ask Jesus to save you. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Would you find the way to heaven]

1838 - 1921 Person Name: Wm. J. Kirkpatrick Composer of "[Would you find the way to heaven]" in Showers of Blessing William J. Kirkpatrick (b. Duncannon, PA, 1838; d. Philadelphia, PA, 1921) received his musical training from his father and several other private teachers. A carpenter by trade, he engaged in the furniture business from 1862 to 1878. He left that profession to dedicate his life to music, serving as music director at Grace Methodist Church in Philadelphia. Kirkpatrick compiled some one hundred gospel song collections; his first, Devotional Melodies (1859), was published when he was only twenty-one years old. Many of these collections were first published by the John Hood Company and later by Kirkpatrick's own Praise Publishing Company, both in Philadelphia. Bert Polman
