COME, ye sinners, poor and wretched,

By A Collection of Hymns


      8 7, 8 7, 4 7.
      1 COME, ye sinners, poor and wretched,
      Weak and wounded, sick and sore:
      Jesus ready stands to save you,
      Full of pity joined with power;
      He is able,
      He is willing; doubt no more.

      2 Come, ye needy, come, and welcome,
      God's free bounty glorify;
      True belief, and true repentance,
      Every grace that brings us nigh,
      Without money,
      Come to Jesus Christ and buy.

      3 Let not conscience make you linger,
      Nor of fitness fondly dream;
      All the fitness he requireth,
      Is to feel your need of him:
      This he gives you;
      'Tis the Spirit's rising beam.

      4 Come, ye weary, heavy-laden,
      Bruised and mangled by the fall;
      If you tarry till you're better,
      You will never come at all:
      Not the righteous,
      Sinners Jesus came to call.

      5 Lo! the incarnate God, ascended,
      Pleads the merit of his blood:
      Venture on him, venture wholly,
      Let no other trust intrude;
      None but Jesus
      Can do helpless sinners good.
