The invitation of the gospelA
-
Isa etcB
-
Let every mortal ear attendC
And every heart rejoiceD
The trumpet of the gospel soundsE
With an inviting voiceD
-
Lo all ye hungry starving soulsF
That feed upon the windG
And vainly strive with earthly toysH
To fill an empty mindG
-
Eternal Wisdom has preparedI
A soul reviving feastJ
And bids your longing appetitesK
The rich provision tasteL
-
Ho ye that pant for living streamsM
And pine away and dieN
here you may quench your raging thirstO
With springs that never dryN
-
Rivers of love and mercy hereP
In a rich ocean joinQ
Salvation in abundance flowsR
Like floods of milk and wineS
-
Ye perishing and naked poorT
Who work with mighty painU
To weave a garment of your ownV
That will not hide your sinW
-
Come naked and adorn your soulsF
In robes prepared by GodX
Wrought by the labors of his SonY
And dyed in his own bloodZ
-
Dear God the treasures of thy loveA2
Are everlasting minesB2
Deep as our helpless miseries areC2
And boundless as our sinsD2
-
The happy gates of gospel graceE2
Stand open night and dayF2
Lord we are come to seek suppliesG2
And drive our wants awayF2
