His voice we hear and fol­low all, fol­low all,
The Sav­ior of­fers heav’n­ly rest;
Ye sin­ners on back­slid­ing bent,
Come to this fount which flows for all,
Which bursts in thun­der on our head.
Ye sin­ners, come, ’tis mer­cy’s voice,
Sinner! it was a heav­en­ly voice—
Comrades, who re­ceive Him, Mas­ter of us all,
Oh! haste to fol­low where it leads;
These al­tars wel­come all alike

gra­cious call

Whose voice we hear and fol­low all, fol­low all,
And cast your gloomy fears away.
Shall not com­pas­sion so di­vine
Jesus, who came the way to show,
We looked for this vin­dic­tive day;
Mercy in­vites to heav’n­ly joys—
It bade thee make the bet­ter choice,
Follow Him to Cal­va­ry, bear its shame and loss;
Be rug­ged wilds, or flow­ery meads,
From things un­ho­ly and un­clean
