A feast of joy unspeakable is spread

A feast of joy unspeakable is spread,
by him who is himself the living bread,
a place for hungry souls is now prepared,
a life of endless glory to be shared.

2. Yet places at this feast were dearly bought
when Jesus Christ came down and souls were sought,
and found and saved by his own precious blood,
to make our peace with heaven’s holy God.

3. That gentle hand, once pierced, will pour the wine,
the liquid life of love our souls refine,
in heaven’s hall of wonders still to come,
when God in matchless mercy brings us home.

4. And there, together saved by lavish grace,
the room ablaze with light from Jesus’ face,
and every trace of sin and darkness gone,
we’ll sing the praise of God’s all-radiant Son.
