Author: W. Gadsby Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #587 (1844) Meter: 6.6.8.6 First Line: Come, whosoever will Lyrics: 1 Come, whosoever will,
Nor vainly strive to mend;
Sinners are freely welcome still
To Christ, the sinner’s Friend.
2 The gospel-table’s spread
And richly furnished too,
With wine and milk, and living bread,
And dainties not a few.
3 [The guilty, vile, and base,
The wretched and forlorn,
Are welcome to the feast of grace,
Though goodness they have none.]
4 No goodness he expects;
He came to save the poor;
Poor helpless souls he ne’er neglects,
Nor sends them from his door.
5 His tender, loving heart
The vilest will embrace;
And freely to them will impart
The riches of his grace. Topics: Salvation and Free Grace Languages: English
