Words

1.

Jesus calls us o’er the tumult
  Of our life’s wild restless sea;
Day by day His sweet voice soundeth,
  Saying “Christian, follow Me.”
Jesus calls us from the worship
  Of the vain world’s golden store,
From each idol that would keep us,
  Saying “Christian, love Me more.”

2.

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.”
Jesus calls us; by Thy mercies,
  Savior, may we hear Thy call,
Give our hearts to Thine obedience,
  Serve and love Thee best of all.

Through [Jesus] let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge His name.
