Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Hymnal: African American Heritage Hymnal #523 (2001) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: African American Heritage Hymnal First Line: The King of heav'n His table spreads Lyrics: 1 The King of heav'n His table spreads,
And blessings crown the board;
Not paradise, with all its joys,
Could such delight afford.
2 Pardon and peace to dying men,
And endless life are giv'n,
Through the rich blood that Jesus shed
To raise our souls to heaven.
3 Millions of souls, in glory now,
Were fed and feasted here;
And millions more, still on the way,
Around the board appear.
4 All things are ready, come away,
Nor weak excuses frame;
Come to your places at the feast,
And bless the Founder’s Name. Topics: Everlasting Life; Jesus Christ His Blood; Jesus Christ His Name Scripture: Ezekiel 39:17 Languages: English Tune Title: DUNDEE
