Back from the weary wand’ring,
Into the narrow way;
Jesus is tenderly calling,
Calling the sheep that stray.
Still, still Jesus is calling;
Hear, oh, hear Him say:
“Weary, heavy-laden,
Come, come today!”
Out of the dreary desert
Into the pastures green,
Out of the land of darkness
Into the light serene.
Still, still Jesus is calling;
Hear, oh, hear Him say:
“Weary, heavy-laden,
Come, come today!”
Why should we longer tarry,
Why should we longer roam
Far from the place of refuge,
Far from the sheltering home?
Still, still Jesus is calling;
Hear, oh, hear Him say:
“Weary, heavy-laden,
Come, come today!”
Come, for the hours are waning:
Come from the mountains cold;
Come from the storm and tempest
Into the Shepherds fold!
Still, still Jesus is calling;
Hear, oh, hear Him say:
“Weary, heavy-laden,
Come, come today!”
