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!
