Oh, in¤cline your ear and heark¤en
To the Sav¤iour’s plead¤ing voice,
Do not now re¤ject His friend¤ship,
He is wait¤ing for your choice;
He’s the balm of con¤so¤la¤tion,
He will soothe your trou¤bled breast;
Heark¤en, He is plead¤ing, plead¤ing:
“Come, Oh! come to Me and rest.”

Chorus:
¤Plead¤ing still, ¤plead¤ing still,
Heark¤en to the low¤ly Je¤sus,
He is plead¤ing, plead¤ing ¤still.
plead¤ing still plead¤ing still plead¤ing still

When the world has ceased to charm you,
And its vain al¤lure¤ments fled,
All its pleas¤ures gone for ev¤er,
And you min¤gle with the dead,
When you face the King e¤ter¤nal
What will be your fi¤nal doom?
Oh, con¤sid¤er! Oh, con¤sid¤er!
Haste, es¤cape the mid¤night gloom.

Soul, take heed, He will not al¤ways
By His Spir¤it strive with thee;
He is pa¤tient, kind and ten¤der,
But He will not al¤ways be,
There’s a lim¤it to His pa¤tience,
To His mer¤cy and His grace,
Oh! make room, make room for Je¤sus,
Lest He hide from you His face.
