Lyrics

The Sav­ior is calling you, sinner—
Urging you now to draw nigh;
He asks you by faith to receive Him;
Jesus will help if you try.

Refrain

Jesus will help you, Je­sus will help you,
Help you with grace from on high;
The weakest and poorest
The Sav­ior is calling;
Jesus will help if you try.

Thro’ Him there is life in be­liev­ing;
Sinner, oh, why will you die?
Accept Him by faith as your Sav­ior;
Jesus will help if you try.

Refrain

The Sav­ior is calling you, wanderer—
Points you to mansions on high;
Return to the path that leads homeward;
Jesus will help if you try.

Refrain

There’s danger in longer delaying—
Swiftly the moments pass by;
If now you will come, there is mercy;
Jesus will help if you try.
