Lyrics

Return ye, saith the Sav­ior,
To all who are as­tray;
For I who have redeemed you
Would give you life today.

Refrain

I come to Thee, my Sav­ior,
Low at Thy feet I bow;
I’m trusting Thee for pardon,
Praise God! He saves me now.

Return ye, saith the Sav­ior,
Who died on Calvary’s tree;
For you a feast is rea­dy;
Taste of My love and see.

Refrain

While in the far off country,
His loving voice I heard;
I came, and peace He gave me;
I’m saved, O praise the Lord.

Refrain

Wilt thou not heed the call, friend?
God’s mercy pleads with thee;
And Christ Himself is waiting,
To set sin’s captive free.
