Come to Jesus, wanderer, come,
Still he waits to welcome home;
From your life of sin and loss,
Weep your way beneath the cross;
Choose the Saviour, hear his voice,
Come, repent, believe, rejoice.
Come to Jesus as you are,
Break from Satan's every snare,
He enlists, but to enslave;
Jesus woos, and woos to save:
Fly into his pierced embrace;
Be a sinner saved by grace.
Come to Jesus, why decline
Love's fond pleadings, heart of thine?
Calvary, tinged with sacred blood,
Now invites to heaven and God;
Hear the invitation sweet,
Come, surrender at his feet.
Come to Jesus, now relent,
Come, believingly repent;
Come, submissive to his sway,
Come, our Captain wins today;
Sin a captive has been led,
Christ has bruised the serpent's head.
Hallelujah, Jesus saves!
Sing it loud, ye ransomed slaves;
Calvary's victim ever wins,
Death and hell in malice grins,
For a brand is snatched away
From sin's night to endless day.
