1 The Master is calling for you, dear friend,
The Master is calling for you;
You have wandered away,—
Won’t you come back today?
Come back to the good and the true.

Refrain:
Come, the dear Master is calling,
Come, the dear Master is calling,
Calling, calling,
Is tenderly calling for you.

2 He calls by his Word unto you, dear friend,
His Word which has come from above,
Won’t you heed it today?
Won’t you come to him, say?
Come back to the heart of his love. [Refrain]

3 He calls by His Spirit to you, dear friend,
His Spirit is moving your heart;
Won’t you yield to him now?
Won’t you here make your vow,
For heaven at once you will start. [Refrain]

4 He calls by his providence, too dear friend,
In ways which have sorrows untold;
Though your spirit may sigh,
Let your fond heart reply,
Dear Lord, I’ll return to thy fold. [Refrain]

5 The Master is calling you all, dear friends,
The Master is calling us, too;
We have wandered away,
Let us come back today,
Come back to the good and the true. [Refrain]
