Chorus

Calling now for thee, (Calling now for thee, calling now for thee,) O weary prodigal come, (Weary prodigal, come, weary prodigal, come;) Calling now for thee, (Calling now for thee, calling now for thee,) O weary prodigal come. (Weary prodigal, come, weary prodigal, come.)

Verse 1

God is calling the prodigal come without delay; Hear, O hear Him calling, calling now for thee; Tho' you've wandered so far from His presence come today, Hear His loving voice calling still. (calling still.)

Verse 2

Patient, loving, and tenderly still the Father pleads; Hear, O hear Him calling, calling now for thee; O! return while the spirit in mercy intercedes, Hear His loving voice calling still. (calling still.)

Verse 3

Come, there's bread in the house of the Father, and to spare; Hear, O hear Him calling, calling now for thee; Lo! the table is spread and the feast is waiting there, Hear His loving voice calling still. (calling still.)
