| The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He hath anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor. (Luke 4:18) |
| Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached. And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in Me. (Luke 7:22‑23) |
| He lifted up His eyes on His disciples, and said, Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God. (Luke 6:20) |
“Call them in” — the poor, the wretched,
Sin-stained wanderers from the fold;
Peace and pardon freely offer;
Can you weigh their worth with gold?
“Call them in!” — the weak, the weary,
Laden with the doom of sin;
Bid them come and rest in Jesus;
He is waiting: “Call them in!” |
