Come, Sinners, to the Gospel Feast

Verse 1

Come, sinners,
to the gospel feast;
let every soul
be Jesus’ guest.

Ye need not one
be left behind,
for God hath bid
all humankind.

Verse 2

Sent by my Lord,
on you I call;
the invitation
is to all.

Come, all the world!
Come, sinner, thou!
All things in Christ
are ready now.

Verse 3

Come, all ye souls
by sin oppressed,
ye restless wanderers
after rest;

ye poor, and maimed,
and halt, and blind,
in Christ a hearty
welcome find.

Verse 4

My message as
from God receive;
ye all may come
to Christ and live.

O let his love
your hearts constrain,
nor suffer him
to die in vain.

Verse 5

This is the time,
no more delay!
This is the Lord’s
accepted day.

Come thou, this moment,
at his call,
and live for him
who died for all.
