CGS Lyrics
Verse 1
Come, soul, and find thy rest,
No longer be distress'd;
Come to thy Saviour's breast;
O don't stay away.

Chorus
Prayers are ascending now,
Angels are bending now,
Both worlds are blending now,
O don't stay away.

Verse 2
Dark is the world, and cold,
Her cares cannot be told;
Come to Thy Saviour's fold;
O don't stay away.

Chorus
Prayers are ascending now,
Angels are bending now,
Both worlds are blending now,
O don't stay away.

Verse 3
Come with thy load of sin,
Christ died thy soul to win;
Now He will take thee in;
O don't stay away.

Chorus
Prayers are ascending now,
Angels are bending now,
Both worlds are blending now,
O don't stay away.

Verse 4
Time here will soon be past,
Moments are flying fast;
Judgement will come at last;
O don't stay away.

Chorus
Prayers are ascending now,
Angels are bending now,
Both worlds are blending now,
O don't stay away.

Verse 5
Come, O we pray thee, come,
Come, and no longer roam;
Come now, and start for Home,
O don't stay away.

Chorus
Prayers are ascending now,
Angels are bending now,
Both worlds are blending now,
O don't stay away.
