1. Child of sin and sor-row! Filled with dis-may, Heav'n bids thee come While yet there's room Wait not for to-mor-row, Yield thee to-day: Jesus gently calls, Weary sin ner, come! Leave the land of sin and want, Hast-en to thy happy home! God thy Fa-ther comes to meet thee; Saints and an-gels wait to greet thee; To thy Father and thy home, Weary sin ner, come! 248. 1. JESUS gently calls! Weary sinner, come! Leave the land of sin and want, Hasten to thy happy home! God thy Father comes to meet thee; Saints and angels wait to greet thee; To thy Father and thy home, Weary sinner, come! 2. Jesus, thy sweet call Falls like evening dew On our weary, thirsty souls, Shedding life and strength anew: Though to-day be full of sorrow, Thy sweet smile can inake to-morrow Bright and clear; O Saviour dear, Let thy smile appear! 76 Warniny and Invitation. EXPOSTULATION. 118. 1. Oh, turn ye, oh, turn ye, for why will ye die, When God in great mer-cy is com-ing so nigh? Now Jesus in-vites you, the Spirit says, Come, And angels are waiting to welcome you home. 2. And now Christ is ready your souls to receive, 1. DELAY not, delay not, O sinner, draw near, The waters of life are now flowing for thee; The love and compassion of Jesus thy God? To wash and be cleansed in his pardoning blood! 3. Delay not, delay not, O sinner, to come, For Mercy still lingers and call thee to-day: 4. Delay not, delay not, the Spirit of grace Long grieved and resisted may take its sad flight, 5. Delay not, delay not, the hour is at hand, JOB Xxii. 21. The earth shall dissolve, and the heavens shall fade; Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish, Earth has no sorrow that heav'n cannot heal 252. 1. COME, ye disconsolate, where'er ye languish ; Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish'; To-day the Sav-iour calls! Ye wand'rers, come; Oh, ye benighted souls, Why loa-ger roam? |
