Farther and farther away?

2. Jesus is calling the weary to rest, 
Calling today, calling today, 
Bring Him your burden and you shall be blest; 
He will not turn you away. 

3. Jesus is waiting, O come to Him now, 
Waiting  today, waiting today, 
Come with your sins, at His feet lowly bow; 
Come, and no longer delay. 

4. Jesus is pleading, O list to His voice 
Hear Him today, hear Him today, 
They who believe on His name shall rejoice; 
Quickly arise and away.
