Lyics

HUMBLE souls, who seek salvation,

Through the Lamb's redeeming blood,

Hear the voice of revelation;

Tread the path that Jesus trod.



Hear the blest Redeemer call you;

Listen to His heav'nly voice;

Dread no ills that can befall you,

While you make His way your choice



Plainly here His footsteps tracing,

Follow Him without delay,

Gladly His command embracing;

Lo! your Captain leads the way.
