"I thought on my ways, and turned my feet unto Thy testimonies. I made haste" (Psalm 119:59,60). "As the cold of snow in the time of harvest, so is a faithful messenger… As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country" (Proverbs 25:13,25). "Whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered" (Joel 2:32). "Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the Gospel of the kingdom of God, and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the Gospel" (Mark 1:14,15).
I heard the call
of Christ the Savior
And joyfully to
Him I hasted
To find my
refuge in His favor,
For why should
time be further wasted?
As good news
from a country far,
As waters cold
to quench my thirst,
As heaven's
faithful guiding star,
The Gospel
blesses those once cursed.
I called upon
the Savior's name;
There was no
other saving path.
He washed away
my sin and shame
And saved me
from eternal wrath.
O Lord, the time
to turn to You
Had come by Your
own invitation!
Your calling
that I now pursue
Is making known
Your great salvation.
