Lyrics

Sinner, come to Je­sus,
Come without delay;
Tarry not a moment,
Jesus calls today.

Refrain

Come to Je­sus,
Come to Je­sus;
Sinner, come to Je­sus,
Come without delay.

Mercy’s door stands open
To receive you home;
It may close if longer
You refuse to come.

Refrain

Sinner, haste to Je­sus,
Run to His embrace;
O how much He loves you!
Come and taste His grace.
