293. Come for the feast is Spread

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 make 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 Jesus, we come to Thee,
Oh, take us in!
Set Thou our spirits free;
Cleanse us from sin!
Then, in yon land of light,
All clothed in robes of white,
Resting not day nor night,
Thee will we sing.
