Representative Text

1 Gather them to us from ev’ry side,
Call them in, Call them in;
Open the doors of mercy wide,
Gently call them in.
In from the pathways of sin and woe,
In from temptation to downward go,
In from the danger of every foe.
Gently call them in.

Refrain:
Oh, call them in, oh, call them in,
Away from temptations that lead to sin;
Their souls are precious in His sight,
And brightly will shine in the realms of light.

2 Waifs from the highways are wand'ring today,
Call them in, Call them in;
Into the straight and narrow way,
Gently call them in.
Into the life of peace and joy,
Pleasures are there which can never cloy,
Following Jesus will not annoy,
Gently call them in. [Refrain]

3 Many are out in the paths of sin,
Call them in, Call them in;
Help them a home of light to win,
Gently call them in.
Tell these dear children the Savior died,
Drawing them close to His wounded side,
Teach them in Jesus to always hide.
Gently call them in. [Refrain]
