Jesus Sinners Doth Receive

Jesus sin­ners doth re­ceive;

Oh

may all this say­ing pon­der

Who in sin’s de­lu­sions live

And from God and Heav­en wan­der!

Here is hope for all who grieve—

Jesus sin­ners doth re­ceive.

We de­serve but grief and shame

Yet His words

rich grace re­veal­ing

Pardon

peace and life pro­claim.

Here their ills have per­fect heal­ing

Who with hum­ble hearts be­lieve—

Jesus sin­ners doth re­ceive.

Sheep that from the fold did stray

No true shep­herd e’er for­sak­eth;

Weary souls that lost their way

Christ

the Shep­herd

gent­ly tak­eth

In His arms that they may live—

Jesus sin­ners doth re­ceive.

Come

ye sin­ners

one and all

Come

ac­cept His in­vi­ta­tion;

Come

obey His gra­cious call

Come and take His free sal­va­tion!

Firmly in these words be­lieve:

Jesus sin­ners doth re­ceive.

I

a sin­ner

come to Thee

With a pe­ni­tent con­fess­ion;

Savior

mer­cy show to me

Grant for all my sins rem­iss­ion.

Let these words my soul re­lieve:

Jesus sin­ners doth re­ceive.

Oh

how blest it is to know:

Were as scar­let my trans­gress­ion

It shall be as white as snow

By Thy blood and bit­ter Pass­ion;

For these words I now be­lieve:

Jesus sin­ners doth re­ceive.

Now my con­science is at peace

From the Law I stand ac­quit­ted;

Christ hath pur­chased my re­lease

And my ev­ery sin re­mit­ted.

Naught re­mains my soul to grieve—

Jesus sin­ners doth re­ceive.

Jesus sin­ners doth re­ceive.

Also I have been for­giv­en;

And when I this earth must leave

I shall find an op­en Heav­en.

Dying

still to Him I cleave—

Jesus sin­ners doth re­ceive.
