O Come Unto Jesus

Verse 1

There's a soft pleading voice, calling tenderly, To the heart heavy laden and sad; At the cross thou shalt be, from thy burden set free, Then look up, weary one, and be glad.

Chorus

O come, unto Jesus, And His love do not doubt; This the promise to thee: He that cometh unto Me, I will never, no never cast out.

Verse 2

Heed not sin's luring tones, tho' so temptingly She doth whisper of joys yet unknown; Only Jesus can give pleasures sweet, that will live; He withholds naught of good from His own.

Verse 3

When He hung on the cross, O how cruelly! Did they mock as they pass'd by Him there! Will you mock at Him too, when He hung there for you, Whom He lov'd with a love past compare?

Verse 4

Yield to Him, for He pleads, O so patiently! As no friend ever sought thee before, On His dear, loving breast, all who come shall find rest; Joy and peace to thy soul He'll restore.
