RESCUE THE PERISHING

1Res-cue the per-ish-ing, Care for the dy-ing, Snatch them in pit-y from sin and the grave;
Weep o'er the err-ing one, Lift up the fall-en, Tell them of Je-sus, the might-y to save.

RefrainRes-cue the per-ish-ing, Care for the dy-ing; Je-sus is mer-ci-ful, Je-sus will save.

2Tho' they are slight-ing him, Still he is wait-ing, Wait-ing the pen-i-tent child to re-ceive;
Plead with them ear-nest-ly, Plead with them gen-tly, He will for-give if they on-ly be-lieve.

3Down in the hu-man heart, Crushed by the tempt-er, Feel-ings lie bur-ied that grace can re-store;
Touched by a lov-ing heart, Wak-ened by kind-ness, Chords that are bro-ken will vi-brate once more.
