Matt. 11:28
|
|
In the palace in the land of mercy
|
The King looked out from His throne
|
He saw the sick and the homeless and hungry
|
He saw me lost and without hope
|
And moved with compassion
|
He sent out His only Son
|
With the invitation to come
|
|
This is your invitation
|
Come just the way you are
|
Come find what your soul has been longing for
|
Come find your peace
|
Come join the feast
|
Come in, this is your invitation
|
|
So I stood outside the gates and trembled
|
In my rags of unworthiness
|
Afraid to even stand at a distance
|
In the presence of holiness
|
But just as I turned to go
|
The gates swung open wide
|
And the King and His only Son
|
They invited me inside
|
|
So now will you come with me
|
To where the gates swing open wide
|
The King and His only Son
|
Are inviting us inside
|
|
This is our invitation
|
Come sinner as you are
|
Come find what your soul has been longing for
|
Come find your peace
|
Come join the feast
|
Come in, this is your invitation
|
This is our invitation
|
This is the invitation
|
