- Jesus calls us; o'er the tumult
- .i Cecil Frances Alexander (1818 - 95)
-
- .1
- Jesus calls us;
- o'er the tumult
- of our life's
- wild restless sea,
- day by day
- His voice is sounding,
- saying, 'Christian,
- follow me'
-
- .2
- As of old,
- apostles heard it
- by the Galilean lake,
- turned from home,
- and toil, and kindred,
- leaving all
- for His dear sake.
-
- .3
- Jesus calls us
- from the worship
- of the vain world's
- golden store,
- from each idol
- that would keep us,
- saying, 'Christian,
- love me more'
-
- .4
- In our joys and
- in our sorrows,
- days of toil
- and hours of ease,
- still He calls,
- in cares and pleasures,
- 'Christian, love Me
- more than these'
-
- .5
- Jesus calls us!
- By Thy mercies,
- Saviour, may we
- hear Thy call,
- give our hearts
- to Thine obedience,
- serve and love
- Thee best of all.
