Melodies of Praise Lyrics
Hymn No.153

First Line: Jesus Is Calling,

1
Jesus is tenderly calling thee home,
Calling today, calling today;
Why from the sunshine of love wilt thou roam
Farther and farther away?

Chorus:
Calling today,
Calling today;
Jesus is calling,
Is tenderly calling today.

2
Jesus is calling the weary to rest,
Calling today, calling today;
Bring Him thy burden and thou shalt be blest;
He will not turn thee away.
[Chorus]

3
Jesus is waiting; O come to Him now,
Waiting today, waiting today;
Come with thy sins; at His feet lowly bow;
Come and no longer delay.
[Chorus]

4
Jesus is pleading; O list to His voice,
Hear Him today, hear Him today;
They who believe on His name shall rejoice;
Quickly arise and away.
[Chorus]
