HARK! the gospel news is sounding,
Christ has suffered on the tree;
Streams of mercy are abounding,
Grace for all is rich and free;
Now poor sinner,
Look to him who died for thee.
2 O escape to yonder mountain,
Refuge find in him today!
Christ invites you to the fountain,
Come and wash your sins away;
Do not tarry,
Come to Jesus while you may.
3 Grace is flowing like a river,
Millions there have been supplied;
Still it flows as fresh as ever
From the Saviour's wounded side;
None need perish,
All may live for Christ hath died.
4 Christ alone shall be our portion;
Soon we hope to meet above;
Then we'll bathe in the full ocean
Of the great Redeemer's love;
All his fullness
We shall then forever prove.
