¶Lyrics / Text

1. Hark, my soul! it is the Lord; Tis thy Savior, hear his word; Jesus speaks, and speaks to thee; Say, poor sinner, lovest thou me? :''Chorus'' :Hark! hark! Tis the voice of my Savior and Lord; :He calls unto me, :Poor sinner, come! 2. I delivered thee when bound, And, when wounded, healed thy wound; Sought thee wand’ring, set thee right, Turned thy darkness into light.
