1. Come, for all things are ready,
‘Tis a banquet of love,
Here’s a free invitation
From the Master above;
It is written in crimson,
Drawn from Calvary’s flood,
From the wonderful fountain
Of the soul-cleansing blood.
Chorus:
What a fulness in Jesus,
What a blessing we know!
Come, for all things are ready,
Long, long ago.
2. Come, for all things are ready,
Heaven’s bounty is spread,
Take the cup of salvation,
Take the life-giving bread;
Come, tho’ poor and unworthy,
Come, tho’ sinful and weak;
‘Tis the hungry and thirsty,
Whom the Master will seek.
3. Come, for all things are ready,
Here’s a robe, snowy-white,
Fairer far than the raiment
Of the angels of light;
For the beauty of Jesus,
Will thy covering be;
Only ask for this garment,
‘Twill be given to thee.
