He Waits for Thee

Author: Elsie Duncan Yale Hymnal: Songs of Faith and Hope Number 2 #50 (1909) First Line: He waits for thee with wondrous grace Lyrics: 1 He waits for thee with wondrous grace, Divine compassion in His face; With wounded brow and nail-scarred hands, The Saviour on the threshold stands. Refrain: He waits for thee! He waits for thee! Was ever love so full and free? No longer close thy heart in sin, But let the loving Saviour in. 2 He waits for thee in patient love, To bring thee blessings from above, And o’er thy hardened heart doth yearn; O canst thou still thy Saviour spurn? [Refrain] 3 He waits for thee, yet time grows late, Note ever thus will Jesus wait; Receive Him, ere He pleads no more, And Christ, rejected, leaves the door. [Refrain] Tune Title: [He waits for thee with wondrous grace]
