1. Why dost thou wander a-way from thy Lord? Je-sus is call-ing thee home; 2. Call-ing thee home from thy sin and its tears, Je-sus is call-ing thee home; 3. All thy pol- lu- tion He wash-es a- way, Je-sus is call-ing thee home;

O b6

Call-ing thee now thro' the truth of His word,
Call-ing thee home from thy sor-row and fears,
Come with thy burden, He'll not say thee nay,

Je-sus is call-ing thee home.
Je-sus is call-ing thee home.
Je-sus is call-ing thee home.

Now He is wait-ing the soul to
Why not accept your Re-deem-er
Art thou un-worth-y? His blood yet

re-ceive, Now He will help you His to-night? Why will you per - ish, with avails; Trembling and doubting, His

Word to believe, Now ev'ry need of thy heart He'll re-lieve;
heaven in sight? See thro' its portals the "Home-light" so bright;
word never fails; Held by thy weak-ness, 'tis
Jesus
prevails;

1. My life, my love I give to Thee, Thou Lamb of God, who died for me; 2. I now be-lieve Thou dost re-ceive, For Thou hast died that I may live; 3. O Thou, who died on Calva - ry To save my soul and make me free,

1. When we walk with the Lord In the light of His Word, What a glo-ry He 2. Not a shad-ow can rise, Not a cloud in the skies, But His smile quickly 3. Not a bur-den we bear, Not a sor-row we share, But our toil He doth 4. But we never can prove The de-lights of His love Un-til all on the 5. Then in fellow-ship sweet We will sit at His feet, Or we'll walk by His

sheds on our way! While we do His good will He a-bides with us still, drives it a way; Not a doubt nor a re-pay; Not a grief nor a tar we lay; For the favor He shows And the joy He bestows side in the way; What He says we will do, Where He sends we will go,
