Come, ye sinners, poor and needy,
Weak and wounded, sick and sore;
Jesus ready stands to save you,
Full of pity, love and power.
|:He is able;
:|
|:He is willing: doubt no more.
Now ye needy, come, and welcome,
God’s free bounty glorify;
True belief and true repentance,
Every grace that brings you nigh.
|:Without money,
:|
|:Come to Jesus Christ and buy.
:|
Come, ye weary, heavy laden,
Bruised and ruined by the fall;
If you tarry till you’re better,
You will never come at all.
|:Not the righteous-
:|
|:Sinners, Jesus came to call.
:|
View Him prostrate in the garden;
On the ground your Maker lies.
On the bloody tree behold Him;
Hear Him cry before He dies,
|:"It is finished!"
:|
|:Sinner, will this not suffice?
:|
Lo! the incarnate God ascended,
Pleads the merit of His blood:
Venture on Him, venture wholly,
Let no other trust intrude.
|:None but Jesus
:|
|:Can do helpless sinners good.
:|
Let not conscience make you linger,
Not of fitness fondly dream;
All the fitness He requireth
Is to feel your need of Him.
|:This he gives you;
:|
'|:Tis the Spirit's rising beam.
:|
Saints and angels, joined in concert,
Sing the praises of the Lamb;
While the blissful seats of heaven
Sweetly echo with his name.
|:Hallelujah!:|
|:Sinners here may sing the same.:|
View him groveling in the garden;
Lo! your Maker prostrate lies!
On the bloody tree behold him;
Hear him cry, before he dies,
|: "It is finished :" :|
|: Sinner will not this suffice? :|
Lo! the incarnate God descended,
Pleads the merits of his blood:
Venture on him, venture wholly,
Let no other trust intrude;
|: None but Jesus :|
|: Can do helpless sinners good. :|
Saints and angels joined in concert,
Sing the praises of the Lamb;
While the blissful seats of heaven
Sweetly echo with his name:
|: Hallelujah! :|
|: Sinners here may sing the same. :|
