"Come and See"




If there is anyone reading this who does not know the Lord Jesus Christ, 
I pray that you, too, will "come and see" as Philip once said to Nathanael. 

And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing 
come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see
John 1:46

Oh friend, I'd like to tell you
Of One so dear to me.
He is the only Saviour;
Oh, won't you "come and see"?

I cannot taste for you
Forgiveness full and free;
But, Oh! I'd like to urge you,
My friend, to "come and see"!

You'll find in Him a Refuge
If you will only seek
With all your heart and mind and soul
The Shepherd of the sheep.

Don't linger at the portals
But flee to Him Who died!
He rose again, and now you'll find
A Refuge in His side.

His blood was shed, the debt to pay
For all those who believe;
Each one of those who comes to Him
Eternal life receives.
