Come, sinners, heed the Savior’s call
Come to the feast, it’s free to all
Come hear His Word and truly live
He satisfies, great love he gives
Come seek the Lord, draw near today
Turn from your wicked thoughts and ways
His Word is strong and trustworthy
Great joy and peace one day we’ll see
– From a sermon on Isaiah 55
(To the tune of “The Doxology”)
Come, everyone who thirsts,
come to the waters;
and he who has no money,
come, buy and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk
without money and without price.
Why do you spend your money for that which is not bread,
and your labor for that which does not satisfy?
Listen diligently to me, and eat what is good,
and delight yourselves in rich food.
Incline your ear, and come to me;
hear, that your soul may live….
Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life;
whoever comes to me shall not hunger,
and whoever believes in me shall never thirst….
The Spirit and the Bride say, “Come.”
And let the one who hears say, “Come.”
And let the one who is thirsty come;
let the one who desires take the water of life without price.
– Isaiah 55:1-3a, John 6:35, Revelation 22:17 (ESV)
