Rescue The Perishing,
Care For The Dying,
Snatch Them In Pity From Sin And The Grave;
Weep O’er The Erring One, Lift Up The Fallen,
Tell Them Of Jesus The Mighty To Save.

Rescue The Perishing,
Care For The Dying;
Jesus Is Merciful,
Jesus Will Save.

Though They Are Slighting Him,
Still He Is Waiting,
Waiting The Penitent Child To Receive;
Plead With Them Earnestly, Plead With Them Gently;
He Will Forgive If They Only Believe.

Down In The Human Heart,
Crushed By The Tempter,
Feelings Lie Buried That Grace Can Restore;
Touched By A Loving Heart, Wakened By Kindness,
Chords That Were Broken Will Vibrate Once More.

Rescue The Perishing,
Duty Demands It;
Strength For Thy Labour The Lord Will Provide;
Back To The Narrow Way Patiently Win Them;
Tell The Poor Wanderer A Saviour Has Died.
