COME, all souls by sin afflicted, Bowed with fruitless sorrow down; By the broken law convicted, Through the Cross behold the crown. Look to Jesus Mercy flows through Him alone. |

2 | Sweet as home to exiles weary; Light to newly-opened eyes; Flowing springs in deserts dreary, Is the life that Christ supplies; All who taste it Shall to life immortal rise. |
