List to the SavÂior’s pleadÂing call,
Hark, how its acÂcents so softÂly fall,
Filled with a tenÂder yearnÂing love;
“Enter the path that leads abÂove.
Refrain
Come to Me, come to Me,
Child of My tenÂder love to be;
Come to Me, come to Me,
Come, for My love hath ranÂsomed thee!”
Hark, ’tis the still, small voice again,
Louder it speaks to the sons of men,
Calling to all, ere cares inÂcrease:
“Enter the pleaÂsant paths of peace.
Refrain
Speaks this sweet voice to evÂery heart;
Heed its blest call, or it may deÂpart!
Care, with its voicÂes loud, will come,
Hiding the call from the saints’ bright home.
