Lyrics & Stanzas
4 portions
Verse 1
Hear the sweet voice of Jesus say, "Come unto Me, I am the way;" Harken the loving call obey; Come for He loves you so.
Verse 2
Casting your heavy burden down; Come to the cross, the world may frown; Yet you shall wear a glorious crown, When He makes up His own.
Verse 3
Open for you the pearly gate; Saved ones for you now watch and wait; Terrible tho't to cry "too late," "Jesus I come to Thee."
Chorus
Only a step, only a step; Come for He bled for you and died; He's the same loving Savior yet, Jesus the Crucified.
