O, Children, Come Saviour Come!
He Waits Your Souls to Bless;
to Clothe You With His Heavenly Robe
of Spotless Righteousness.
It Was for Such as You He Died
On Calvary’s Cruel Cross;
To Save You From the Load of Sin,
and From Eternal Loss.
Love Brought Him Down From Heaven
Above,
To This Sad World of Woe,
That You, Deserving Endless Death,
To Life Through Him Might Go.
God Gave Him up—His Only Son—
To Bleed and Die for Sin,
That Rebel Sinners, Great and Small,
He to Himself Might Win.
Alone He Suffered, Died Alone,
but Now He Lives in Heaven,
That All Who Now Believe May Know
Their Many Sins Forgiven.
Then, Will You Come, and Own Him Yours, and Trust His Peerless Name?
That When He Comes to Claim His Own. He You as His May Claim.
