Lyics

TO-DAY the Saviour calls:

Ye wand'rers, come;

O ye benighted souls,

Why longer roam?



To-day the Saviour calls;

O hear Him now!

Within these sacred walls

To Jesus bow.



To-day the Saviour calls;

For refuge fly:

The storm of vengeance falls,

And death is nigh.



The Saviour calls to-day;

Yield to His pow'r;

O grieve Him not away!

'Tis mercy's hour.
