come sinners

Come, sinners, to Jesus! no longer delay,

a full, free salvation He offers to-day;

arouse your dark spirits, awake from your dream,

And Christ will support you in coming

to Him.




For the Lion of Judah shall break every chain,

And give us the vict‟ry again and again.

For the Lion of Judah shall break every chain,

And give us the vict‟ry again and again.




Our blessed Redeemer was nailed to the tree,

to open a fountain for sinners like me,

His blood is the fountain that pardon bestows,

and cleanses the foulest wherever it flows.




And when I was willing with all things to part,

He gave me my bounty, His love in my heart,

so now I am joined with the conquering band,

who are marching to glory at Jesus‟ command.




Though round me the storms of adversity roll,

and the waves of destruction encompass my soul,

in vain this frail vessel the tempest shall toss,

my hopes rest secure on the blood of the cross.




And when with the ransomed of Jesus my Head,

from fountain to fountain I then shall be led

I‟ll fall at His feet and His mercy adore,

and sing of the blood of the cross evermore
