| List to the Gospel resounding,Beautiful message of love;
 Jesus, in mercy abounding,
 Calleth for you from above.
 Refrain List to the heavenly voiceTenderly urging your choice;
 Yield to the love of your Savior,
 Listen, believe and rejoice.
 Why not, O why not, repenting,Turn from your perilous course,
 Ending in woe unrelenting,
 Anguish, disgrace and remorse?
 Refrain Life, like the dew of the morning,Vanisheth quickly away;
 Death bringeth sorrow and mourning,
 Wailing forever and aye.
 Refrain Touched by the Spirit so tender,Calling as ever before,
 Willingly, freely surrender,
 Open, yes, open your door.
