HYMN 79. A Call to Young-Men.

1

Christ's Trumpet sounds yet once again,
to bring poor sinners in;
'Tis Voluntiers he would obtain,
to fight against their Sin.

2

And faithful Laborours he likewise,
is come to seek and call:

82

Young Men, will you not now arise
and enter's Vine-yard all.

3

Christ worthy is, his Service too,
will raise you very high;
His Wages is a Crown of Life,
his Servants never Die.

4

O then desert and come away,
you serve a cruel Foe;
Desert his service now this Day,
and unto JESUS go!

5

When any come, the Angels sing,
it causes joy above;
All such who come may also sing,
for they enjoy his Love.
