Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.364
First Line: Is there a sinner awaiting him :,
Is there a sinner awaiting him :
Mercy and pardon to-day ?
Welcome the news that we bring
Jesus is passing this way !
Coming in love and in mercy,
Pardon and peace to bestow,
Coming to save the poor sinner
From his heart-anguish and woe.
Jesus is passing this way . . .
To-day, . . to-day ; . . .
While He is near, O believe Him,
Open your heart to receive Him,
For Jesus is passing this way, . .
Is passing this way to-day.
2 Brother, the Master is waiting,
Waiting to freely forgive ;
Why not this moment accept Him,
Trust in His grace and live?
He is so tender and precious,
He is so near you to-day ;
Open your heart to receive Him,
While He is passing this way.
3 Yes, He is coming to bless you
While in contrition you bow :
Coming from sin to redeem you,
Ready to save you now :
Can you refuse the salvation
Jesus is offering here ?
Open your heart to admit Him,
While He is coming so near.
