125. Invitation to Sinners

1 Come sinners, to the gospel feast,
Let ev'ry soul be Jesus' guest;
Ye need not one be left behind,
For God hath bid all mankind.

2 "Have me excus'd why will you say?
From health, and life, and liberty;
From all that is in Jesus giv'n,
From pardon, holiness and heav'n.

3 Come then you souls by sin opprest,
Ye weary wanderers after rest;
Ye poor and maimed, halt and blind,
In Christ a hearty welcome find.

4 See him set forth before your eyes,
Behold the bleeding sacrifice;
His offer'd love let all embrace,
And freely now be sav'd by grace.

5 Ye who believe his record true,
Shall sup with him and he with you;
Come to the feast be sav'd from sin,
For Jesus waits to take you in.

6 This is the time, no more delay;
This is the glorious gospel day.
Come in this moment at his call,
And live to him who dy'd for all.
