Lyics

SINNERS, come and taste with me

Consolation rich and free,

From our wealthy Father's board

With the rarest dainties stored.



Wherefore should we feast alone?

God invites you ev'ry one'

All that come of free good will,

Make the banquet sweeter still.



Come, O come to mercy's door;

Christ receiveth all the poor;

Jesus gives a glorious share;

To his banquet, then, repair.
