78. Come, Ye That Fear the Lord

P.M.
1
Come, ye that fear the Lord,
 
Unto Me, unto Me;
 
Come, ye that fear the Lord,
 
Unto Me!
 
I’ve something good to say
 
About the narrow way:
 
For Christ the other day
 
Saved my soul, saved my soul!
2
He gave me first to see
 
What I was, what I was;
 
He gave me first to see
 
What I was!
 
He gave me first to see
 
My guilt and misery,
 
And then He set me free!
 
Bless His name! Bless His name!
3
My old companions said,
 
"He’s undone, he’s undone!"
 
My old companions said,
 
"He’s undone!"
 
My old companions said,
 
"He’s surely going mad!"
 
But Jesus makes me glad!
 
Bless His name! Bless His name!
4
Some said, "He’ll soon give o’er,
 
You shall see, you shall see!"
 
Some said, "He’ll soon give o’er,
 
You shall see!"
 
But time has passed away
 
Since I began to pray,
 
And I feel His love today!
 
Bless His name! Bless His name!
5
So now I’m going home
 
To the Lord, to the Lord.
 
So now I’m going home
 
To the Lord.
 
So now I’m going home.
 
Poor sinner, won’t you come?
 
Or meet an awful doom
 
From the Lord, from the Lord.
