The Cyber Hymnal ‎#274

274. All Things Are Ready

1. All things are ready, come to the feast!
Come, for the table now is spread;
Ye famishing, ye weary, come,
And thou shalt be richly fed.

Refrain
Hear the invitation,
Come, whosoever will;
Praise God for full salvation
For whosoever will.

2. All things are ready, come to the feast!
Come, for the door is open wide;
A place of honor is reserved
For you at the Master’s side. [Refrain]

3. All things are ready, come to the feast!
Come, while He waits to welcome thee;
Delay not while this day is thine,
Tomorrow may never be. [Refrain]

4. All things are ready, come to the feast!
Leave ev’ry care and worldly strife;
Come, feast upon the love of God,
And drink everlasting life. [Refrain]
