  *++Lyrics:|\\
Rescue the perishing, care for the dying,\\
Snatch them in pity from sin and the grave;\\
Weep o'er the erring one, lift up the fallen,\\
Tell them of Jesus, the mighty to save.\\
\\
//chorus: //\\
Rescue the perishing, care for the dying,\\
Jesus is merciful, Jesus will save.\\
\\
Though 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.\\
\\
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 were broken will vibrate once more.\\
\\
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.\\
\\
