Jesus calls us o'er the tumult

1

Jesus calls us o'er the tumultOf our life's wild, restless sea;Day by day his sweet voice soundeth,Saying, "Christian, follow me!"

2

Jesus calls us from the worshipOf the vain world's golden store;From each idol that would keep us,Saying, "Christian, love me more!"

3

In our joys and in our sorrows,Days of toil and hours of ease,Still he calls, in cares and pleasures,"Christian, love me more than these!"

4

Jesus calls us! by thy mercies,Saviour, may we hear thy call;Give our hearts to thy obedience,Serve and love thee best of all!
