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.

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 are broken will vibrate once more.

Rescue the perishing,
Duty demands it;
Strength for thy labor the Lord will provide;
Back to the narrow way,
Patiently win them;
Tell the poor wand’rer a Savior has died.

I love this song <3

No words have rung the bells for the need of evangelism in a dying world as this "Macedonian call" by Fanny Crosby. It sounds the urgency of the coming Kingdom and the need to get all GOD's children into His fold.
I can go on listening to this song all month on. I've always listened with tears about my conviction both as a sinner and the saved cos my salvaction is only complete with a thousand beside.

This song blesses me from the depest of my heart. It reminds me of the Saints from my village in Antigua Westindies who born on to be with the Lord. I thank God for using them to be soul winners for Jesus. This song reminds me to go out by the grace of God and win souls for Jesus.

I have always considered this a gospel hymn for reaching the lost, unsaved. But I realized today that this message is equally precious to us, God's regenerated sons. How often we are "erring ones", how often we are the ones "slighting Him, Still He is waiting, Waiting the penitent child to receive". How precious that though "Feelings lie buried,,,,,grace can restore". How wonderful a Savior has died! How wonderful that we can apply that death daily. Praise our living Lord!

I am once again propelled by the uncontrolable agony of our Lord on the cross to wake up to the greatest occupation of saved souls.

This song stirred me up to preach the gospel. It still does.
