THE MASTER IS COME-James M. Black

The Master Is Come
}
"The master is come,"
Open itent one,
He brings thee forgiveness and love;
The cup that he drain'd thy pardon has won-
They title to mansions above.

"The master is come,"
O laborer know
The seed thou art sowing in tears,
Thro' sunshine and storm shall blossom and grow
To ripen in heaven's bright years.

"The master is come,"
O pilgrim whose way
Has lain in the shadow so long,
Thy path will lead home to portals of day-
to joy and redemptionss glad song.

"The master is come,"
O mourner rejoice,
He robs even death if its sting;
Thy lov'd shall awake at sound of His voice
To dwell ever-more with the King.
Chorus "The master is come and calleth for thee,"

O soul heavy laden, oppressed,
He calleth for thee,
He calleth for thee,
Draw near unto him and find rest.
