|
|
<p>Behold, the Master passeth by!<br>
|
|
O seest thou not His pleading eye?<br>
|
|
With low sad voice He calleth thee,<br>
|
|
“Leave this vain world, and follow Me.”</p>
|
|
<p>O soul, bowed down with harrowing care,<br>
|
|
Hast thou no thought for heaven to spare?<br>
|
|
From earthly toils lift up thine eye;<br>
|
|
Behold, the Master passeth by!</p>
|
|
<p>One heard Him calling long ago,<br>
|
|
And straightway left all things below<br>
|
|
Counting his earthly gain as loss<br>
|
|
For Jesus and His blessèd cross.</p>
|
|
<p>That “Follow Me” his faithful ear<br>
|
|
Seemed every day afresh to hear;<br>
|
|
Its echoes stirred his spirit still,<br>
|
|
And fired his hope, and nerved his will.</p>
|
|
<p>God gently calls us every day:<br>
|
|
Why should we then our bliss delay?<br>
|
|
Thou, Lord, e’en now art calling me;<br>
|
|
I will leave all, and follow Thee.</p>
