3558 7. 8 7. 4 7
COME, ye sinners, poor and needy,
   Weak and wounded, sick and sore;
Jesus ready stands to save you,
    Full of pity joined with power;
        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,
    Come to Jesus Christ and buy.
 
3  Come, ye weary, heavy laden,
    Bruised and ruined by the fall;
If you wait until you’re better,
    You will never come at all:
        Not the righteous,
    Sinners Jesus came to call.
 
4  Lo! the incarnate God, ascended,
    Pleads the merit of His blood:
Venture on Him, venture wholly,
    Let no other trust intrude;
        None but Jesus
    Can do helpless sinners good.
 
5  Saints and angels joined in concert,
    Sing the praises of the Lamb;
While the blissful seats of Heaven
    Sweetly echo with His name!
        O such mercy!
    Sinners here may sing the same.
 
Joseph Hart, 1712-68
