Turn thee, O lost one, care-worn and weary,
Lo! the good Shepherd is calling to day;
Seeking to save thee, waiting to cleanse thee,
Haste to receive Him, no longer delay
Tenderly calling, patiently calling,
Hear the good Shepherd calling to thee;
Tenderly calling, patiently calling,
Lovingly saying "Come unto Me!"
Still He is waiting, why wilt thou perish,
Tho' thou has wandered so far from the fold?
Yet, with His life-blood, He has redeemed thee,
Wondrous compassion that cannot be told!
Tenderly calling, patiently calling,
Hear the good Shepherd calling to thee;
Tenderly calling, patiently calling,
Lovingly saying "Come unto Me!"
List to His message, think of His mercy!
Sinless yet bearing thy sins on the tree;
Perfect remission, life everlasting,
Thro' His atonement He offers to thee.
Tenderly calling, patiently calling,
Hear the good Shepherd calling to thee;
Tenderly calling, patiently calling,
Lovingly saying "Come unto Me!"
Come in the old way come in the true way,
Enter thro' Jesus for He is the Door;
He is the Shepherd, tenderly calling,
Come in thy weakness and wander no more.
Tenderly calling, patiently calling,
Hear the good Shepherd calling to thee;
Tenderly calling, patiently calling,
Lovingly saying "Come unto Me!"
