1
Jesus calls us over the tumult
Of our life’s wild restless sea
Day by day His sweet voice soundeth
Saying Christian follow Me
2
Jesus calls us from the worship
Of the vain world’s golden store
From each idol that would keep us
Saying Christian love Me more
3
In our joys and in our sorrows
Days of toil and hours of ease
Still He calls in cares and pleasures
Christian love Me more than these
4
Jesus calls us By Thy mercies
Savior may we hear Thy call
Give our hearts to Thine obedience
Serve and love Thee best of all

As of old Saint Andrew heard it
By the Galilean lake
Turned from home and toil and kindred
Leaving all for Jesus’ sake

Jesus calls us from the worship
Of the vain world’s golden store
From each idol that would keep us
Saying Christian love Me more

In our joys and in our sorrows
Days of toil and hours of ease
