  *++Lyrics:|\\
Jesus! dear Name, how sweet it sounds!\\
Replete with balm for all our wounds:\\
His Word declares His grace is free,\\
Come, needy sinner, "Come and see."\\
\\
He left the shining courts on high,\\
Came to our world to bleed and die;\\
Jesus the Lord hung on a tree,\\
Come, thoughtless sinner, "Come and see."\\
\\
Your sins did pierce His bleeding heart,\\
Till death had done its dreadful part;\\
His boundless love extends to thee,\\
Come, trembling sinner, "Come and see."\\
\\
His blood can cleanse the foulest stain,\\
Can make the vilest sinner clean;\\
This fountain open stands for thee,\\
Come, guilty sinner, "Come and see."\\
\\
