Representative Text

1 Arise, and come to Jesus,
He calleth thee today;
The busy crown is thronging
The broad and downward way.

Chorus:
O come, O come,
And on to glory go,
God’s holy book is open
The way of life to show.

2 Arise, and follow Jesus
Wherever He may lead;
Tho’ rough the path, and thorny,
Press on with all thy speed. [Chorus]

3 His feet were torn and bleeding
Who pass’d this way before;
But now a King in glory
He reigneth evermore. [Chorus]
