Lyrics

O come, sinner, come, there’s room for thee,
Hark! ’tis mercy’s call;
O come and receive salvation free,
Hark! ’tis mercy’s call.

Refrain

O come and rest, come and rest,
Heavy laden, guilt oppressed;
O come and rest, come and rest,
Hark! ’tis mercy’s call.

O come, thy Redeemer waits today,
Hark! ’tis mercy’s call;
Now wash in His blood Thy sins away;
Hark! ’tis mercy’s call.

Refrain

Come, lay at His feet thy weary soul,
Hark! ’tis mercy’s call;
Thy faith in His name will make thee whole,
Hark! ’tis mercy’s call.
