Jesus Is Calling (Weekly Hymn Project)

Today's hymn is "Jesus Is calling". I would say this is a lesser known (to me) Fanny Crosby hymn; a nice surprise from the usual, shall we say. So refreshing, I think, to listen to how some writers can put the call of the Lord. Such words like tenderly, will not turn thee away, pleading. Reminds me of the image of the Father waiting for the arrival of His son, seeing him down the road coming home after a life of debauched living, and then not waiting for him, but running to him enclosing him in a warm embrace. Aw, someday. Lyrics: Jesus is tenderly calling thee home— Calling today, calling today, Why from the sunshine of love will thou roam Farther and farther away? [Refrain:] Calling today, calling today, Jesus is calling, is tenderly calling today. Jesus is calling the weary to rest— Calling today, calling today, Bring Him thy burden and thou shalt be blest; He will not turn you away. Jesus is waiting, oh, come to Him now— Waiting today, waiting today, Come with your sins, at His feet lowly bow; Come, and no longer delay. Jesus is pleading, oh, list to His voice: Hear Him today, hear Him today, They who believe on His name shall rejoice; Quickly arise and away. Words by: Fanny J. Crosby Music by: George C. Stebbins
