Lyrics

Jesus’ life is call­ing you,
Calling you to­night;
And the world is call­ing, too—
Which shall be your light?
Jesus’ way is per­fect, right;
Who shall have your soul to­night?
Make your choice to­night;
Which shall be your light?
Jesus’ way is per­fect, right;
Who shall have your soul to­night?

Jesus’ cross is hard to bear
Up the nar­row height,
But His saints are walk­ing there—
Walking there to­night.
Steep the way, but Je­sus’ might
Guides them safe­ly day and night.
Make your choice to­night;
Which shall be your light?
Steep the way, but Je­sus’ might
Guides them safe­ly day and night.

Jesus’ love is call­ing you,
Calling you to­night;
Oh, the world is call­ing, too!
With His cross in sight,
Jesus’ love is ten­der, right;
Shall He win your love to­night?
Make your choice to­night;
Which shall be your light?
Jesus’ love is ten­der, right;
Shall He win your love to­night?

Jesus’ voice is call­ing you,
Pleading now—to­night,
Silently as fall­ing dew,
Sweet with gen­tle might,
Like the rays of morn­ing light;
Shall He win your soul to­night?
Make your choice to­night;
Which shall be your light?
Like the rays of morn­ing light;
Shall He win your soul to­night?
