Jesus, Come! for We Invite You
Author: Christopher Idle Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 15 hymnals Matching Instances: 15 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, come! for we invite you,
guest and master, friend and Lord;
now, as once at Cana's wedding,
speak, and let us hear your word:
lead us through our need or doubting,
hope be born and joy restored.
2 Jesus, come! transform our pleasures,
guide us into paths unknown;
bring your gifts, command your servants,
let us trust in you alone:
though your hand may work in secret,
all shall see what you have done.
3 Jesus, come in new creation,
heaven brought near in power divine;
give your unexpected glory,
changing water into wine:
rouse the faith of your disciples--
come, our first and greatest Sign!
4 Jesus, come! surprise our dullness,
make us willing to receive
more than we can yet imagine,
all the best you have to give:
let us find your hidden riches,
taste your love, believe and live! Topics: Biblical Places Cana; Epiphany Season; Jesus Christ Earthly Life and Ministry; Weddings Scripture: John 2:1-11 Used With Tune: SICILIAN MARINERS
