Lyics

Come, come, come to the Savior,

Rich, rich mercy receive;

Here, here, you will find pardon,

Jesus from sin will relieve;

Come, come, come, come,

Come to the Savior and live.



Come, come laden and weary,

Christ, Christ calls thee to come;

Leave, leave paths dark and dreary,

Cease from the Savior to roam;

Come, come, come, come,

Jesus will guide thee safe home.



Come-- come seek his salvation,

Now-- now hear and obey;

Hark-- hark the sweet invitation,

Angels invite you away;

Come-- come-- come-- come,

Sinner, believe and obey.



Hark-- hark, angels are singing,

Love-- love-- love is their theme;

Peace-- peace joyfully bringing,

Mercy from God the Supreme:

Come-- come-- come-- come,

Jesus is rich to redeem.
