Today the Savior calls,
Ye wand’rers, come!
Oh, ye benighted souls,
Why longer roam?
Today the Savior calls,
Oh hear Him now!
Within these sacred walls.
To Jesus bow!
Today the Savior calls,
For refuge fly!
The storm of justice falls,
And death is nigh.
The Spirit calls today,
Yield to His pow’r.
Oh grieve Him not away!
’Tis mercy’s hour.
Ye wand’rers, come!
Oh, ye benighted souls,
Why longer roam?
Today the Savior calls,
Oh hear Him now!
Within these sacred walls.
To Jesus bow!
Today the Savior calls,
For refuge fly!
The storm of justice falls,
And death is nigh.
The Spirit calls today,
Yield to His pow’r.
Oh grieve Him not away!
’Tis mercy’s hour.
