Come Believing
Create PowerPoint slides from this hymn →A 19th-century gospel invitation hymn urging hearers who have repeatedly heard the Gospel to finally come to Christ in faith. The chorus echoes the Old Testament 'look and live' motif (Numbers 21) applied to evangelical conversion.
Verse 1
Once again the Gospel message,
From the Saviour you have heard;
Will you heed the invitation?
Will you turn and seek the Lord?
Chorus
Come believing, come believing!
Come to Jesus, look and live!
Come believing, come believing!
Come to Jesus, look and live!
Verse 2
Many summers you have wasted,
Ripen'd harvests you have seen;
Winter snows by Spring have melted,
Yet you linger in your sin.
Chorus
Come believing, come believing!
Come to Jesus, look and live!
Come believing, come believing!
Come to Jesus, look and live!
Verse 3
Jesus for your choice is waiting;
Tarry not: at once decide!
While the Spirit now is striving,
Yield, and seek the Saviour's side.
Chorus
Come believing, come believing!
Come to Jesus, look and live!
Come believing, come believing!
Come to Jesus, look and live!
Verse 4
Cease of fitness to be thinking;
Do not longer try to feel!
It is trusting, and not feeling,
That will give the Spirit's seal.
Chorus
Come believing, come believing!
Come to Jesus, look and live!
Come believing, come believing!
Come to Jesus, look and live!
Verse 5
Let your will to God be given,
Trust in Christ's atoning blood;
Look to Jesus now in heaven,
Rest on His unchanging word.
Chorus
Come believing, come believing!
Come to Jesus, look and live!
Come believing, come believing!
Come to Jesus, look and live!
