278. S. M. Pratt's Coll.

Coming to Christ.

1Ye sons of earth, arise,

Ye creatures of a day;

Redeem the time--be bold--be wise,

And cast your bonds away.

2The year of gospel grace

With us rejoice to see,

And thankfully in Christ embrace

Your proffered liberty.

3Blest Saviour, Lord of all,

God help us to receive;

Obedient to thy gracious call,

O, bid us turn and live.
