Wingate Hymnal: The Old Story in Song Number Two #110 (1908) First Line: The voice of the Saviour is calling, calling Refrain First Line: Calling, he’s calling today Lyrics: 1 The voice of the Saviour is calling, calling, As farther and farther I wander astray; In accents of love it is falling, falling, “O turn thee, O turn thee, no longer delay.” Refrain: Calling, he’s calling today, Calling for me; Calling, “No longer delay;” Dear Savior, I’m coming to thee. 2 The wounds of the Saviour are pleading, pleading, And clearer and clearer is shining the light; It shows me the nail-prints all bleeding, bleeding, Dear Savior, I’m coming, I’m coming tonight. [Refrain] 3 The hands of the Saviour are beck’ning, beck’ning, As nearer and nearer I press to his side; Upon his sure word I am reck’ning, reck’ning, Dear Savior, I’m coming, for me thou hast died. [Refrain] 4 The love of the Saviour is boundless, boundless, In billows and billows it breaks on the shore; The depths of his mercy are soundless, soundless, Dear Savior, I’m coming, the struggle is o’er.

William J. Kirkpatrick

1838 - 1921 Person Name: Wm. J. Kirkpatrick Composer of "[The voice of the Saviour is calling]" in Songs of Faith and Hope Number 2 William J. Kirkpatrick (b. Duncannon, PA, 1838; d. Philadelphia, PA, 1921) received his musical training from his father and several other private teachers. A carpenter by trade, he engaged in the furniture business from 1862 to 1878. He left that profession to dedicate his life to music, serving as music director at Grace Methodist Church in Philadelphia. Kirkpatrick compiled some one hundred gospel song collections; his first, Devotional Melodies (1859), was published when he was only twenty-one years old. Many of these collections were first published by the John Hood Company and later by Kirkpatrick's own Praise Publishing Company, both in Philadelphia. Bert Polman
