Song Lyrics
[Verse 1] Jesus calls us; o'er the tumult Of our life's wild, restless sea, Day by day His sweet voice soundeth, Saying, "Christian, follow Me." [Verse 2] As of old Saint Andrew heard it By the Galilean lake, Turned from home and toil and kindred. Leaving all for His dear sake. [Verse 3] Jesus calls us from the worship Of the vain world's golden stole. From each idol that would keep us, Saying, "Christian, love Me more." [Verse 4] In our joys and in our sorrows, Days of toll and hours of ease, Still He calls, in cares and pleasures, "Christian, love Me more than these." [Verse 5] Jesus calls us; by Thy mercies, Savior, make us hear Thy call, Give our hearts to Thine obedience, Serve and love Thee best of all. Amen.
