Lyrics

Come, come to Je­sus!
He waits to wel­come thee
O wan­d’rer, ea­ger­ly;
Come, come to Je­sus!

Come, come to Je­sus!
He waits to ran­som thee
O slave! so will­ing­ly;
Come, come to Je­sus!

Come, come to Je­sus!
He waits to light­en thee
O bur­dened! trust­ing­ly
Come, come to Je­sus!

Come, come to Je­sus!
He waits to give to thee
O blind! a vi­sion free;
Come, come to Je­sus!

Come, come to Je­sus!
He waits to shel­ter thee
O wea­ry! bless­ed­ly
Come, come to Je­sus!

Come, come to Je­sus!
He waits to car­ry thee
O lamb! so lov­ing­ly,
Come, come to Je­sus!
