Lyrics

Come to the feast that the Lord hath spread,
Here ev­ery soul may be tru­ly fed;
Come in the name of your Liv­ing Head,
Washed in the blood of the Lamb.

Refrain

Washed in the blood of the Lamb,
Washed in the blood of the Lamb;
Come, and your souls shall be tru­ly fed,
Washed in the blood of the Lamb.

Come to the feast, leave your care and strife,
Come, for His word is with bless­ings rife;
Now un­to you is eter­nal life,
Washed in the blood of the Lamb.

Refrain

Come to the feast, hear the Gos­pel word,
Come while your heart by its pow­er is stirred;
Fly to the ark like the wea­ry bird,
Washed in the blood of the Lamb.
