Jesus is wait­ing

Waiting to save you, com­ing so nigh;
Haste, at His feet to fall.
Calling so ten­der­ly, Come un­to Me;
Worn with the world’s fruit­less striv­ing for peace;
Waiting to­day, wait­ing to­day,
Chains He will sev­er—all things He can do.
Mercy is plead­ing to­day.
He is a friend al­migh­ty and true;
