HYMNS.
[PART
And life, and health, and bliss impart
To banish mortal woe.
3 Here springs of sacred pleasure rise
To ease your ev’iy pain.
(Immortal fountain f full supplies !)
Nor s*hall you thirst in vain.
4 Ye sinners come, ’tis mercy’s voice.
The gracious call obey ;
Mercy invites to heav’nly joys,—
And can you yet delay ?
5 Dear Saviour, draw reluctant hearts ;
To thee let sinners fly.
And take the bliss thy love imparts ;
And drink, and never die.
97.
The Gospel Invitation. Isaiah Iv. 2.
| 1 TLTO ! ye that thirst, approach the spring
' l i Where living waters flow :
Free to that sacred fountain all
Without a price may go. y
j 2 How long to streams of false delight
Will ye in crowds repair ?
I How long your strength and substance waste
On trifles, light as air ?
5 My stores afford those rich supplies
That health and pleasure give :
Incline your ear, and come to me.
The soul that hears shall live.
4 With you a cov’nant I will make
That ever shall endure;
| The hope which gladden’d David’s heart
My mercy hath made sure.
5 Behold he comes! your Leader comes.
With might and honour crown’d;
