Only a Step

 1  

Hear the sweet voice of Jesus say,  

“Come unto me, I am the way!”  

Hearken, the loving call obey;  

Come, for He loves you so.   

2   

Casting your heavy burden down  

Low at the cross, the world may frown;  

Yet you shall wear a glorious crown,  

When He makes up His own.  

3   

Open for you the pearly gate;  

Lov’d ones for you now watch and wait.  

Terrible thought, to cry too late,  

“Jesus, I come to Thee.”  

Refrain:  

Only a step, only a step;  

Come, for He bled for you and died;  

He’s the same loving Saviour yet,  

Jesus the Crucified.

2 Timothy 4:7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: 8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
