Jesus Is Passing This Way

Is there a heart that is waiting,
Longing for pardon today?
Hear the glad message proclaiming,
Jesus is passing this way.

Is there a heart that has wandered?
Come with thy burden today;
Mercy is tenderly pleading,
Jesus is passing this way. [Refrain]

Is there a heart that is broken?
Weary and sighing for rest?
Come to the arms of the Savior,
Pillow thy head on His breast. [Refrain]

Come to thy only Redeemer,
Come to His infinite love;
Come to the gate that is leading
Homeward to mansions above. [Refrain]

Refrain
Jesus is passing this way,
This way, today;
Jesus is passing this way,
Is passing this way today.

Fanny Crosby, 1894
Read Luke 19:1-10

(I don’t think we grasp how ready, how willing Jesus is to receive us when we have sinned, when we have strayed. It is important to remember that Jesus doesn’t treat us like WE would treat us. Let’s strive to show others that love.)
