Jesus Calls Us O'er the Tumult Lyrics & Chords

By Cecil Frances Alexander & William H. Jude

(C)Jesus (G)calls us o'er the (C)tumult 

of our (F)life's wild, restless (E)sea; 

(A)day by (D)day his (G)sweet voice (C)soundeth, 

saying, (F)"Christian, (G)follow (C)me!" 



As of old the apostles heard it 

by the Galilean lake, 

turned from home and toil and kindred, 

leaving all for Jesus' sake. 



Jesus calls us from the worship 

of the vain world's golden store, 

from each idol that would keep us, 

saying, "Christian, love me more!" 



In our joys and in our sorrows, 

days of toil and hours of ease, 

still he calls, in cares and pleasures, 

"Christian, love me more than these!" 



Jesus calls us! By thy mercies, 

Savior, may we hear thy call, 

give our hearts to thine obedience, 

serve and love thee best of all.
