Lyics

Come, sinners, to the gospel feast,
Let ev'ry soul be Jesus guest;
You need not one be left behind,
For God has bidden all mankind.


Hark! 'tis the Saviour's gracious call,
The invitation is to all;
Come all the world-come, sinner, thou;
All things in Christ are ready now.


Come, all you souls by sin oppress'd,
You weary wanderers after rest;
You poor and maim'd, and halt and blind,
In Christ a hearty welcome find.


The message, as from God, receive,
You all may come to Christ and live;
O let this love your hearts constrain,
Nor suffer him to call in vain.


This is the time-no more delay;
The Saviour calls you all to-day:
O let his call effectual prove!
Accept the offers of his love!
