And canst thou, sinner, slight

Verse 1

And canst thou, sinner! slight The call of love divine? Shall God, with tenderness, invite, And gain no thought of thine?

Verse 2

Wilt thou not cease to grieve The Spirit from thy breast, Till he thy wretched soul shall leave With all thy sins oppressed?

Verse 3

To-day a pardoning God Will hear the suppliant pray; To-day a Saviour's cleansing blood, Will wash thy guilt away.
