1O All that pass by, To Jesus draw near
He utters a cry; Ye sinners give ear!
From hell to retrieve you, He spreads out his hands:
Now, now to receive you, He graciously stands.
2If any man thirsts, And happy would be,
The vilest and worst May come unto Me;
May drink of my spirit (Excepted is none)
Lay claim to my merit, And take for his own.
3Whoever recieves The life-giving word,
In Jesus believes, His God and his Lord,
In him a pure river Of Life shall arise,
Shall in the believer Spring up to the skies.
4My God and my Lord! Thy call I obey;
My soul on thy word Of promise I stay:
Thy kind invitation I gladly embrace;
A thirst for salvation, Salvation by grace.
5O hasten the hour! Send down from above
The spirit of power, Of health and of love;
Of filial fear, Of knowledge and grace;
Of wisdom, of prayer, Of joy, and of praise.
6The spirit of faith, Of faith in thy blood,
Which saves us from wrath, And brings us to God;
Removes the huge mountain Of indwelling sin,
And opens a fountain, That washes us clean.
