 1 

Come, ye sinners, poor and wretched,

Weak and wounded, sick and sore;

Jesus ready waits to save you,

Full of pity, love and pow'r:

He is able, He is able,

He is willing, doubt no more.

 
 2 

Come, ye needy, come and welcome;

God's free bounty glorify;

True belief and true repentance,

Every grace that brings us nigh,

Without money, without money,

Come to Jesus Christ and buy.

 
 3 

Let not conscience make you linger,

Nor of fitness fondly dream;

All the fitness He requireth

Is to feel your need of Him:

This He gives you, this He gives you,

'Tis the Spirit's rising beam.

 
 4 

Come, ye weary, heavy laden,

Lost and ruined by the fall;

If you tarry till you're better,

You will never come at all:

Not the righteous, not the righteous,

Sinners Jesus came to call.

 
 5 

Agonizing in the garden,

Your Redeemer prostrate lies;

On the bloody tree behold Him!

Hear Him cry, before He dies,

"It is finished!" "It is finished!"

Sinner, will not this suffice?

 
 6 

Lo! th' incarnate God, ascended,

Pleads the merit of His blood;

Venture on Him, venture wholly;

Let no other trust intrude:

None but Jesus, none but Jesus,

Can do helpless sinners good.
