Hymn

ENGLISH LYRICS:  Sinners Jesus will receive

For my yoke is easy, and my burden light. Matt.11:30

1.  Sinners Jesus will receive;
    Sound this word of grace to all
    Who the heavenly pathway leave,
    All who linger, all who fall!

Chorus:
    Sing it o'er and o'er again;
    Christ receiveth sinful men;
    Make the message clear and plain;
    Christ receiveth sinful men.

2. Come and He will give you rest;
    Trust him for His word is plain;
    He will take the sinfulest:
    Christ receiveth sinful men.

3. Now my heart condemns me not,
    Pure before the law I stand;
    He who cleansed me from all spot,
    Satisfied its last demand.

4. Christ receiveth sinful men,
    Even me with all my sin;
    Purged from every spot and stain,
    Heaven with Him I enter in.

Amen.
