1 Come, for the feast is spread,
Hark to the call:
Come to the Living Bread
Broken for all;
Come to his “house of wine”,
Low on His breast recline,
All that he hath is thine;
Come, sinner, come.
2 Come where the fountain flows,
River of life;
Healing for all thy woes,
Doubting, and strife.
Millions have been supplied,
No one was e'er denied,
Come to the crimson tide;
Come, sinner, come.
3 Come to the throne of grace,
Boldly draw near;
He who would win the race
Must tarry here.
Whate'er thy want may be,
Here is the grace for thee,
Jesus thy only plea;
Come, Christian, come.
4 Come to the Better Land,
Pilgrim, make haste!
Earth is a foreign strand
Wilderness waste!
Here are the harps of gold,
Here are the joys untold
Crowns for the young and old;
Come, pilgrim, come.
5 Jesus, we come to Thee,
Oh, take us in!
Set Thou our spirits free;
Cleanse us from sin!
Then, in yon land of light,
Clothed in our robes of white,
Resting not day nor night,
Thee will we sing.
