JESUS our Lord invites us here To this triumphal feast; And brings immortal blessings down For each believing guest. |
|||
2 | The Lord! how glorious is His face! How kind His smiles appear; And O, what melting words He says To every humble ear: |
||
3 | ‘For you, the children of My love, It was for you I died; Behold My hands, behold My feet, And look upon My side . . . |
||
4 | ‘These are the wounds for you I bore, The proof of all My pains When I came down to free your souls From misery and chains.’ |
||
5 | Atoning Lord, what can we pay For favours so divine? We would devote our hearts away To be for ever Thine. |
||
Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 |
