God is calling the prodigal,
come without delay,
Hear, O hear Him calling,
calling now for thee.
Tho’ you’ve wandered
so far from His presence, come today,
Hear His loving voice calling still.
Calling now for thee,
O weary prodigal, come;
Calling now for thee,
O weary prodigal, come.
Patient, loving and tenderly
still the Father pleads,
Hear, O hear Him calling,
calling now for thee;
Oh! return while the Spirit
in mercy intercedes,
Hear His loving voice calling still.
Calling now for thee,
O weary prodigal, come;
Calling now for thee,
O weary prodigal, come.
Come, there’s bread in the house
of the Father, and to spare,
Hear, O hear Him calling,
calling now for thee;
Lo! the table is spread
and the feast is waiting there,
Hear His loving voice calling still.
Calling now for thee,
O weary prodigal, come;
Calling now for thee,
O weary prodigal, come.
