God Is Calling Thee
Barney Elliott Warren • English
Primary Scripture: Mark 10:49
Verse 1
Is God calling thee, O guilty sinner?— Satan has long on thee imposed— Or has the Spirit gone forever? Is thy heart’s door against Him closed.
Chorus
Come, sinner, God is calling thee; Come, sinner, God is calling thee; He is pleading, interceding; Come, God is calling thee.
Verse 2
Is God calling thee? Wilt thou not hear Him? Sinner, He’s pleading now for thee; In pity His Spirit draws thee near Him, Mercy and love are shown so free.
Chorus
Come, sinner, God is calling thee; Come, sinner, God is calling thee; He is pleading, interceding; Come, God is calling thee.
Verse 3
Is God calling thee in great compassion? Then let thy heart this Christ receive; He died on the cross to seal thy pardon; How canst thou thus His Spirit grieve?
Chorus
Come, sinner, God is calling thee; Come, sinner, God is calling thee; He is pleading, interceding; Come, God is calling thee.
Verse 4
Is God calling thee? Then wait no longer; Canst thou His pleading voice despise? If thou wilt obey, ’twill make thee stronger— From sin and guilt thou canst arise.
Chorus
Come, sinner, God is calling thee; Come, sinner, God is calling thee; He is pleading, interceding; Come, God is calling thee.
Verse 5
Yes, God’s calling me, and shall I slight Him? With this vain world for aye be lost? For His greater love I’ll not betray Him, No, I’ll be His at any cost.
Chorus
Come, sinner, God is calling thee; Come, sinner, God is calling thee; He is pleading, interceding; Come, God is calling thee.
