Come Ye That Seek the Lord

lyricist: Charles Wesley, 1746
Composer: Lowell Mason, 1843

Come ye that seek the Lord

Him that was cru­ci­fied

Come list­en to the Gos­pel word

And feel it now ap­plied;

To ev­ery soul of man

The joy­ful news we show

Jesus for ev­ery sin­ner slain

Is ris’n again for you.

The Lord is ris­en in­deed

And did to us appear

He hath been seen

our liv­ing head

By ma­ny a Pe­ter here:

We

who so oft de­nied

Our mast­er and our God

Have thrust our hand in­to His side

And felt the stream­ing blood.

Raised from the dead we are

The mem­bers with their Lord

And bold­ly in His name de­clare

The soul re­viv­ing word;

Salvation we pro­claim

Which ev­ery soul may find

Pardon and peace in Je­sus’ name

And life for all man­kind.

O might they all re­ceive

The bleed­ing Prince of Peace!

Sinners

the glad re­port be­lieve

Of Je­sus’ wit­ness­es;

He lives

who spilt His blood;

Believe our re­cord true

The arm

the pow­er

the Son of God

Shall be re­vealed in you.
