1  Jesus is tenderly calling thee home-
    Calling to-day, calling to-day!
    Why from the sunshine of love wilt thou roam,
    Farther and farther away?

            CHORUS

    Calling to-day! Calling to-day!
    Jesus is calling, is tenderly calling to-day!

2  Jesus is calling the weary to rest-
    Calling to-day, calling to-day!
    Bring Him thy burden, and thou shalt be blest:
    He will not turn thee away.

3  Jesus is waiting, oh, come to Him now-
    Waiting to-day, waiting to-day!
    Come with thy sins, at His feet lowly bow;
    Come, and no longer delay!

4  Jesus is pleading: oh, list to His voice-
    Hear Him to-day, hear Him to-day!
    They who believe on His name shall rejoice;
    Quickly arise and away!
