Come, Come to Him Now

Author: Anon. Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: There is a Savior waiting Lyrics: 1 There is a Savior waiting, Earnest in His call; Why be hesitating? Welcome are one and all! Long the world you’ve been trying, Trying its pleasure and sin; Blind to the fact that you’re dying, To His rich banquet come in! Chorus: Come, come to Him now! Come, come to Him now! All welcome to Jesus: Come, come to Him now! 2 Pardon He gives, salvation, Life eternal, peace; Hear the proclamation, Giving the slave release! “Wine and milk without money!” All that you need “without price!” Words that are “sweeter than honey,” Jesus the heart doth suffice. [Chorus] 3 Come, and till life is ended, Earth forever gone, Serve Him, now ascended! Living for Him alone. Here we wait His returning, Back He has promised to come; Oh, that our lamps may be burning, Burning till He call us home! [Chorus] Used With Tune: [There is a Savior waiting]

There Is a Home Eternal

Author: H. R. P. Hymnal: Christian Hymns #300 (1935) First Line: There is a home eternal Refrain First Line: Home, beautiful home! Lyrics: 1 There is a home eternal, Beautiful and bright, Where sweet joys supernal Never are dimmed by night; White-robed angels are singing Ever around the bright throne; When, O when shall I see thee, Beautiful, beautiful home? Chorus: Home, beautiful home! Bright, beautiful home! Bright home of our Savior, Bright Beautiful home! 2 Flowers are ever springing In that home so far; Little children singing Praises to Jesus there. How they swell the glad anthem Ever around the bright throne; When, O when shall I see thee, Beautiful, beautiful home? [Chorus] 3 Soon shall I join the ransomed, Far beyond the sky; Christ is my salvation, Why should I fear to die? Soon my eyes shall behold Him Seated upon the bright throne; Then, O then shall I see thee, Beautiful, beautiful home! [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [There is a home eternal]

Anonymous

Person Name: Anon. Author of "Come, Come to Him Now" in Choice Hymns of the Faith In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
