Jesus Calls Today

1 Lo, the Savior invites thee to-day!
He has suffered great anguish for thee,
And he asks but thy trust and thy love,
Saying, "sinner, oh come thou to me!"

Chorus:
He calls to-day,
His call obey;
Thy soul is blest,
And thou shalt rest.

2 He would ransom thy soul with his blood,
And he knocks at the door of thine heart;
Bid him enter and give him thy love,
Lest thy Lord should forever depart. [Chorus]

3 For he holdeth thy life in his hand,
He hath numbered thy years ev'ry one,
And thy death may be near even now,
Ere the work of redemption is done. [Chorus]

4 Oh, tomorrow it may be too late,
And the time of his mercy be o'er,
For his death may be near even now,
Ere the work of redemption is done. [Chorus]
