Rescue the Perishing
Rescue the perishing, Care for the dying, Snatch them in pity from sin and the grave; Weep o'er the erring ones, Lift up the fallen, Tell them of Jesus, the mighty to save.
Rescue the perishing, Care for the dying; Jesus is merciful, Jesus will save.
Tho they are slighting Him, Still He is waiting, Waiting the penitent child to receive; Plead with them earnestly, Plead with them gently; He will forgive if they only believe.
Rescue the perishing, Care for the dying; Jesus is merciful, Jesus will save.
Down in the human heart, Crushed by the tempter, Feelings lie buried that grace can restore; Touched by a loving heart, Wakened by kindness, Chords that are broken will vibrate once more.
Rescue the perishing, Care for the dying; Jesus is merciful, Jesus will save.
Rescue the perishing, Duty demands it; Strength for thy labor the Lord will provide; Back to the narrow way, Patiently win them, Tell the poor wand'rer a Savior has died.
Rescue the perishing, Care for the dying; Jesus is merciful, Jesus will save.
