60*. Hark! the Voice of Jesus Calling

8,7.
by A. Midlane
1
Hark! the voice of Jesus calling — 
 
"Come, ye laden, come to Me;
 
I have rest and peace to offer,
 
Rest, thou laboring one, for thee:
 
Take salvation — 
 
Take it now and happy be."
2
Yes; though high in heavenly glory,
 
Still the Savior calls to thee;
 
Faith can hear His gracious accents — 
 
"Come, ye laden, come to Me;
 
Take salvation — 
 
Take it now and happy be."
3
Soon that voice will cease its calling,
 
Now it speaks, and speaks to thee:
 
Sinner, heed the gracious message — 
 
To the blood for refuge flee:
 
"Take salvation — 
 
Take it now and happy be."
4
Life is found alone in Jesus,
 
Only there ’tis offered thee — 
 
Offered without price or money,
 
’Tis the gift of God sent free,
 
"Take salvation — 
 
Take it now and happy be."
“Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.” (Isaiah 55:1)
“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.” (Romans 6:23)
“I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord.” (Psalm 116:13)
“<<A Psalm of David, Maschil.>> Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man unto whom the Lord imputeth not iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no guile.” (Psalm 32:1-2)
