Artist/Band: Hank Locklin
Lyrics for Song: Come and Dine
Lyrics for Album: Gloryland Way [1966]



(Charles B. Widmeyer - S.H. Bolton)



Jesus has a table spread where the saints of God are fed

He invites his chosen people come and dine

With his manna he doth feed and supplies our every need

Oh tis sweet to sup with Jesus all the time.



Come and dine the Master calleth come and dine

You may feast at Jesus table all the time

He who fed the multitude turned the water into wine

To the hungry calleth now come and dine.



The disciples came to land thus obeying Christ's command

For the Master called unto them come and dine

There they found their heart's desire bread and fish upon the fire

Thus he satisfies the hungry every time.



Come and dine the Master calleth come and dine

You may feast at Jesus table all the time

He who fed the multitude turned the water into wine

To the hungry calleth now come and dine.



--- Instrumental ---



Soon the lamb will take his bride to be ever at his side

All the host of heaven will assembled be

Oh twill be a glorious sight all the saints in spotless white

And with Jesus they will feast eternally.



Come and dine the Master calleth come and dine

You may feast at Jesus table all the time

He who fed the multitude turned the water into wine

To the hungry calleth now come and dine...
