Don't Turn the Savior Away

 

Don’t Turn the Savior Away

Why would you turn away someone so loving and kind that can offer you comfort and protection? The only alternative is to live for satan, which also means living for self. Your life might seem good with all your habits, but those are fleeting and they will not save you for eternal life. The choice is always yours but if you decide now to keep on living with your worldly values, it may be too late, later to turn to your Savior. Please don’t turn the Savior away.

Lyrics by Harry D. Clarke, arranged by Harry D. Clarke

“The Savior is calling, is calling for you, in accents so tender, so loving and true, how can you refuse Him? O heed His sweet call! O don’t turn the Savior away.

The savior is calling, why turn Him away? Sin’s burden is heavy, why longer delay? O heart full of sorrow, there’s comfort today; O, don’t turn the Savior away.

The Savior is calling, O, can it be true that life everlasting is waiting for you? Come now and receive Him to satan say nay, O, don’t turn the Savior away.

The Savior is calling from Calvary’s cross, where He died to save you at infinite cost, His heart there was broken for you and for me; O, don’t turn the Savior away.

Don’t turn the Savior away from your heart, don’t turn the Savior away from your heart; O hear Him pleading, O listen to His call, O, don’t turn the Savior away.

Saving the Lost

 

Saving the Lost

“Mark 16:15 “Go you therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.” We are told to seek the lost and bring them to Jesus. There are still many people in this world, whether in your homeland or across the nation, that don’t know Jesus. It is God’s plan and our opportunity to show them who Jesus is and teach them His ways.

Lyrics by William A. Ogden, arranged by William A. Ogden

“Seeking the lost, yes, kindly entreating wanderers on the mountain astray; “Come unto Me,” His message repeating, words of the Master speaking today.

Seeking the lost and pointing to Jesus souls that are weak and hearts that are sore, leading them forth in ways of salvation, showing the path to life evermore.

Thus, I would go on missions of mercy, following Christ from day unto day, cheering the faint and raising the fallen, pointing the lost to Jesus the Way.

Going afar upon the mountain, bringing the wanderer back again, back again. Into the fold of my Redeemer, into the fold of My redeemer, Jesus, the Lamb for sinners slain, for sinners slain.

Come to the Feast

 

Come to the Feast

John 14:3 “And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.” Christ has invited us into His home, and He has a table spread like none other. All who are hungry and thirsty for His word are welcome. There is a place for you beside the Master. If you wait too long, you will miss out. Leave all your worries behind and soak up His love. He offers a door wide open to everlasting life.

Lyrics by Charles H. Gabriel, arranged by William A. Ogden

“All things are ready,” come to the feast! Come for the table now is spread; Ye famishing, ye weary come, and thou shall be richly fed.

“All things are ready,” come to the feast! Come for the door is open wide; A place of honor is reserved for you at the Master’s side.

“All things are ready,” come to the feast! Come, while He waits to welcome you; Delay not while the day is thine, tomorrow may never be.

“All things are ready,” come to the feast! Leave every care and worldly strife; Come, feast upon the Love of God, and drink everlasting life.

Hear the invitation, come whosoever will; praise God for full salvation, for “whosoever will.”

What Will You do with Jesus?

 

What Will You do With Jesus?

If you had been at Jesus’ trial, what would you have done? Would you have denied Him like Peter, would you have mocked Him and said He must be guilty since He is on trial? Would you have stood by His side to the bitter end like Mary. What would you do with Jesus? Jesus was perfect, there was no sin in Him. His trial was so that He could be condemned so that He would take away our sins. Would you deny Him or would you praise Him for loving you so much?

Lyrics by Author Unknown, arranged by M. L. Stocks

“Jesus is standing in Pilate’s hall, friendless, forsaken, betrayed by all; Hearken! What means the sudden call! What will you do with Jesus?

Jesus is standing on trial still, you can be false to Him if you will, you can be faithful through good or ill; What will you do with Jesus?

Will you evade Him as Pilate tried? Or will you choose Him, whatever betide? Vainly you struggle from Him to hide; What will you do with Jesus?

Will you like Peter, your Lord deny? Or will you scorn from His foes to fly. Daring for Jesus to live or die? What will you do with Jesus?”

“Jesus, I give Thee my heart today! Jesus, I’ll follow Thee all the way, Gladly obeying Thee!” will you say; “This will I do with Jesus!”

What will you do with Jesus? Neutral you cannot be; Some day your heart will be asking, “What will He do with me?”

Softly and Tenderly, Jesus is Calling

 

Softly and Tenderly, Jesus is Calling

Jesus is not going to force us to do anything. He has always given us a choice. He stands willing and ready to accept you as one of His own. He calls us softly and tenderly. He does not demand us to follow Him. Time is getting short though and we must decide now and forever if we are going to serve Him or serve our self. The choice is ours. He is pleading with you that you don’t wait too long.

Lyrics by Will L. Thompson, arranged by Will L. Thompson

“Softly and tenderly, Jesus is calling, calling for you and for me; See, on the portals He’s watching and waiting, watching for you and for me.

Why should we tarry when Jesus is pleading, pleading for you and for me? Why should we linger and heed not His mercies, mercies for you and for me?

Time is now fleeting, the moments are passing, passing from you and from me; Shadows are gathering, deathbeds are coming, coming for you and for me.

Oh! For the wonderful love He has promised, promised for you and for me; Though, we have sinned, He has mercy and pardon, pardon for you and for me.

Come home, come home, you who are weary, come home; Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, calling, O sinner, come home!

"Whosoever Will"

 

“Whosoever Will”

Whoever hears the Word of God may be inclined to share it with others. Who wouldn’t want to spread the good news? It is for everyone and it is the road to salvation. Whoever comes to God, must not delay for Jesus is the only way to reach God. It means an eternity in heaven with our Heavenly Father.

Lyrics by Philip P. Bliss, arranged by Philip P. Bliss

“Whosoever hears,” shout, shout the sound! Spread the blessed tidings all the world around; Tell the joyful news wherever man is found.

Whosoever comes, need not delay, now the door is open, enter while you may; Jesus is the true, the only Living Way.

“Whosoever will,” the promise is secure; “Whosoever will,” forever must endure; “Whosoever will,” tis life for evermore;

“Whosoever will may come,” “Whosoever will, whosoever will!” send the proclamation over vale and hill’ Tis a loving Father calls the wanderer home; “Whosoever will may come.”

Why Not Now?

 

                                                Why Not Now?

Today is your last day. You haven’t accepted God’s grace yet. You have wandered so far away from God, you may be thinking there is no hope left. What a troubled mind you have, and there is no peace in it. Why risk your last minutes when God is offering to pardon you of all your sins. Trust in Him, He offers peace and joy and a heavenly home to spend eternity in. Why not now? Come to Jesus now. Confess your sins and give yourself to Him. Receive Him now.

Lyrics by Daniel W. Whittle, arranged by Charles C. Case

“While we pray and while we plead, while you see your soul’s deep need, while our Father calls you home, will you not, my brother come?

You have wandered far away; Do not risk another day; Do not turn from God thy face but today accept His grace.

In this world you failed to find aught of peace for troubled mind; Come to Christ, on Him believe, peace and joy you shall receive.

Come to Christ, confession make; come to Christ, and pardon take; Trust in Him from day to day, He will keep you all the way.

Why not now? Why not now? Why not come to Jesus now? Why not now? Why not now? Why not come to Jesus now?
