Coming Today

Verse 1

Out on the desert, looking, looking, Sinner, 'tis Jesus looking for thee; Tenderly calling, calling, calling, Hither, thou lost one, O, come unto me.

Chorus

Jesus is looking, Jesus is calling, Why dost thou linger, why tarry away? Run to him quickly, say to him gladly, Lord, I am coming, coming to-day.

Verse 2

Still he is waiting, waiting, waiting, O, what compassion beams in his eye, Hear him repeating gently, gently, Come to thy Saviour, O, why wilt thou die.

Verse 3

Lovingly pleading, pleading, pleading, Mercy, tho' slighted, bears with thee yet; Thou canst be happy, happy, happy, Come, ere thy life-star forever shall set.

Verse 4

Spirits in glory, watching, watching, Long to behold thee safe in the fold; Angels are waiting, waiting, waiting, When shall thy story with rapture be told?
