Fits tune: Galilee
('Jesus calls us o'er the tumult')
Based on part of Isaiah Chapter 55
********
Come to Christ, accept His invite
He the Saviour, Lord of life
In Him you shall find redemption
He is God the Father's Son
'Tis like water, bread, without price
His atonement will suffice
Find in Him your sins forgiven
Here on earth a taste of heaven
Seek the Lord while He may be found
Come to Him, praises redound
Humbly now accept His pardon
He the saving work has done
Call upon Him while He is near
With desire and lowly fear
Turn from sin, repentance He gives
That each soul may ever live
This His grace, His love, His favour
Activate your heart, it stir
He shall be your faithful Saviour
You shall not wrath here incur
Invitation to all people
He does hear who on Him call
Only one way, 'tis exclusive
Yet who accept Him, they live

A beautiful verse of faith and so clearly explained.
Another good faith ridden verse.
I'm trying. God knows I'm trying.
Nicely done.
Thanks all.
