Tune: | [We have heard the invitation] |
Composer: | Jno. R. Bryant |
1 We have heard the invitation,
And are going to the feast,
For the Prince of glory spreads a table rare;
All His chosen ones are gath’ring
With the wedding garments on,
For the marriage supper of the Lamb prepare.
Chorus:
We are going, we are going
To the marriage supper of the Lamb of God;
We are ready, ever ready
Some shall come the grand reception of our Lord.
2 Would you stand among the number
Of the heav’nly gusts up there?
You must then a robe of righteousness put on;
Those that enter with that company
Must cleanse their souls from stain,
For your sins the blood of Jesus doth atone. [Chorus]
3 Then be ready when the door is
Opened for that grand event;
Do not let it find you lacking in the least;
Should the door be opened suddenly?
And you be ushered in,
Would you be prepared to celebrate the feast! [Chorus]
