- 1Come, sinners, to the gospel feast,
- Let every soul be Jesus' guest;
- Ye need not one be left behind,
- For God hath bidden all mankind.
- 2Sent 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.
- 3Come, all ye souls by sin opprest,
- Ye restless wanderers after rest,
- Ye poor, and maimed, and halt, and blind,
- In Christ a hearty welcome find.
- 4My 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!
- 5His love is mighty to compel;
- His conquering love consent to feel;
- Yield to His love's resistless power,
- And fight against your God no more.
