lyrics
From the cross, uplifted high, where the Savior hangs to die
What melodious sounds I hear, bursting on my ravished ear
Love’s redeeming work is done—Grace to boast the battle won
Come and welcome, sinner, come. Come and welcome, sinner, come.
Sprinkled now with blood the throne. Why beneath thy burdens groan?
On His broken body laid—justice owns the ransom paid
Bow your knee, behold the Son—crucified and risen One
Come and welcome, sinner, come. Come and welcome, sinner, come.
Wandered far and foolish played,
Longed to right the wrongs been made
In a filthy garment dressed, a traitor and a liar confessed
Swift, to us, the Father runs! All forgiven, exile done
Come and welcome, sinner, come. Come and welcome, sinner, come.
Soon the days of life shall end; Lo, He comes, our Savior, Friend
With salvation to convey, bring the realm of endless day
Come and welcome, sinner, come. Come and welcome, sinner, come.
Come and welcome, sinner, come. Come and welcome, sinner, come.
