CRescue the perishing, Fcare for the Cdying,

Snatch them in pity from G7sin and the Cgrave;

CWeep o'er the erring one, Flift up the Cfallen,

Tell them of Jesus, the G7mighty to Csave.

Chorus

CRescue the perishing, Fcare for the Cdying;

Jesus is G7merciful, Jesus will Csave.

Verse 2

Though Cthey are slighting Him, Fstill He is Cwaiting,

Waiting the penitent G7child to reCceive;

Plead Cwith them earnestly, Fplead with them Cgently;

He will forgive if they G7only beClieve.

Verse 3

CRescue the perishing, Fduty deCmands it;

Strength for thy labor the G7Lord will proCvide;

Back Cto the narrow way Fpatiently Cwin them;

Tell the poor wanderer a G7Savior has Cdied.

Verse 4

Down Cin the human heart, Fcrushed by the Ctempter,

Feelings lie buried that G7grace can reCstore;

Touched Cby a loving heart, Fwakened by Ckindness,

Chords that were broken will G7vibrate once Cmore.
