1. Jesus, call Thou me, from the world to Thee;
Speed me ever, stay me never;
Jesus, call Thou me.

2. Not Jerusalem—lowly Bethlehem
’Twas that gave us Christ to save us;
Not Jerusalem.

3. Favoured Bethlehem! honoured is that name;
Thence came Jesus to release us;
Favoured Bethlehem!

4. Wondrous Child divine! warm this heart of mine;
Keep it burning, for Thee yearning,
Wondrous Child divine!

5. Do not me reject; let Thy light reflect
From me ever, blessèd Saviour;
Do not me reject.

6. O that look of love! may I here above,
Give Thee blessing never ceasing,
For that look of love.
