Representative Text

1 Jesus is waiting to save you,
Bring him your burden of sin;
Knock at the portals of mercy,
Jesus will welcome you in.

Refrain:
Stay not, stay not,
Faithful his promise and true;
Stay not, stay not,
Now there is pardon for you.

2 Come when the morning is brightest,
Come in the springtime of youth,
Come in the vigor of manhood,
Drink at the fountain of truth. [Refrain]

3 Come, and the Saviour will give you
Life and its pleasures untold,
Come, and his mercy will keep you
Guarded and safe in his fold. [Refrain]

4 Come, for the moments are flying,
Come ere they vanish away;
Trust not the dawn of tomorrow,
Jesus is waiting today. [Refrain]
