CCXXXII. Invitation to free salvation

1 Ho! ev'ry one that thirsts, draw nigh,
('Tis God invites the fallen race)
Mercy and free salvation buy;
Buy wine, and milk, and gospel grace.

2 Come to the living waters, come,
Sinners, obey your Maker's voice;
Return, ye weary wanderers, home,
And in redeeming love rejoice.

3 See, from the rock, a fountain rise!
For you in healing streams it rolls:
Money ye need not bring, nor price,
Ye lab'ring, burthen'd, thirsting souls.

4 Ye nothing in exchange can give;
Leave all you have, and are behind:
Frankly the gift of God receive;
Pardon and peace in Jesus find.
