One there is who loves thee, Waiting still for thee; Canst thou yet reject Him? None so kind as He! Do not grieve Him longer, Come and trust Him now! He has waited all thy days: Why waitest thou?

Chorus

One there is who loves thee, O receive Him now! He has waited all thy days; Why waitest thou?

Graciously He woos thee, Do not slight His call; Tho’ thy sins are many, He’ll forgive them all. Turn to Him repenting, He will cleanse thee now; He is waiting at thy heart: Why waitest thou?

Chorus

One there is who loves thee, O receive Him now! He has waited all thy days; Why waitest thou?

Jesus still is waiting; Sinner, why delay? To his arms of mercy Rise and haste away! Only come believing, He will save thee now; He is waiting at the door: Why waitest thou?

Chorus

One there is who loves thee, O receive Him now! He has waited all thy days; Why waitest thou?
