Lyrics:
Come, Thou Savior, spread Thy table
Feed Thy helpless, starving sheep
Give Thy grace to saints unable
To drink Thy cup so deep
For Thy bride is weak in spirit
As her Groom will soon appear
With her spotted soul and wrinkled gown
She trembles to draw near
Refrain
Jesus, Jesus, we adore Thee
Gift of heaven's Bread
Jesus, Jesus, we adore Thee
Keep our spirits fed
Keep the feast of Paschal Lamb
His presence sure and real
His own death for us we now recall
With sacred sign and seal
We taste Thee now as death doth
Wait to bring us to Your side
We now long to enter heaven’s gate
And e’er with You abide
Refrain
To heaven's gate our souls fly
To sup with You anew
Now with all saints from our labors rest
To find our peace with You
Refrain
