Calling now (This loving Saviour)

1) This loving Savior
Stands patiently;
Tho’ oft rejected,
Calls again for thee.

Refrain

Calling now for thee, prodigal,
Calling now for thee;
Thou hast wandered far away,
But He’s calling now for thee.

2) Oh, boundless mercy,
Free, free to all!
Say, child of error,
Heed the tender call.

Refrain

3) Tho’ all unworthy,
Come, now, come home—
Say, while He’s waiting,
„Jesus, dear, I come.“
