Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.376

First Line: Come, ye sinners, poor and needy,

Come, ye sinners, poor and needy,
Weak and wounded, sick and sore ;
Jesus ready stands to save you,
Full of pity, love, and power.
He is able ;
He is willing : doubt no more.

2 Now ye needy, come and welcome;
God's free bounty glorify :
True belief and true repentance----
Every grace that brings you nigh-----
Without money,
Come to Jesus Christ and buy.

3 Let not conscience make you linger,
Nor of fitness fondly dream ;
All the fitness He requireth
Is to feel your need of Him :
This He gives you-----
'Tis the Spirit's rising beam.

4 Come, ye weary, heavy-laden,
Bruised and ruined by the Fall ;
If you tarry till you're better,
You will never come at all :
Not the righteous----
Sinners, Jesus came to call.

5 View Him prostrate in the garden,
On the ground your Maker lies !
On the bloody tree behold Him,
Hear Him cry before He dies,
It is finished !
Sinner, will not this suffice ?

6 Lo, th' incarnate God, ascended,
Pleads the merit of His blood ;
Venture on Him. venture wholly,
Let no other trust intrude ;
None but Jesus
Can do helpless sinners good.
