Lyrics

Who is there long­ing for some­thing to­day,
Something the world can­not take away?
Who is there striv­ing for rest and for peace?
Who from all sin is de­sir­ing release?

Refrain

Listen, He’s call­ing, Come un­to Me!
Listen, the Sav­ior is call­ing,
Come un­to Me and be saved!

Who is there walk­ing in dark­ness of night?
Who is there long­ing for glim­mers of light?
Who is there trou­bled by doubts and by fears?
Who is there blind­ed by fast fall­ing tears?

Refrain

Who is there out on the mount­ain of sin,
Stumbling along with no shel­ter to win?
Who is there moan­ing in aw­ful des­pair,
Hopeless and aim­less with no thought of pray­er?

Refrain

Oh, to be free from the bond­age of sin!
Oh, to be sure that a crown you might win!
Oh, to be saved to the ut­ter­most now!
Come, then, to Je­sus, and joy­ful­ly bow!
