Lyrics
\[Verse 1\] Working down the line, staring at the clock Got our minds on busy days, running round the block There’s a feast laid out, shining bright and clear— Come and leave behind the worries of the year! \[Verse 2\] There are things that call us, places we might stay Holding on to earthly cares, wishing for delay Let's not miss the mercy waiting to be known— Step right into grace, you are not alone! \[Chorus\] Oh, come for the feast! There’s a room for one and all! Hear the Master calling out, Answering His loving call! His grace is like a flood, Yeah, it’s rolling like the sea— At His table tonight, We can finally be free! \[Verse 3\] Out along the roadside where the weary stay He is reaching out to guide us all the way He brings us through the door where the lantern burns bright Resting in the warmth of His holy light! \[Bridge\] He’s calling out our names, won't you look ahead? Lay down every heavy burden in His stead! Put your trust in Jesus Christ, let the healing start— Give Him all your love, give Him all your heart! \[Chorus\] Oh, come for the feast! There’s a room for one and all! Hear the Master calling out, Answering His loving call! His grace is like a flood, Yeah, it’s rolling like the sea— At His table tonight, We can finally be free! \[Outro\] Come on home to Jesus, find your rest at last! Leave behind the highway and the shadows of the past! In His love and grace, we are truly blessed. \[Soaring electric guitar solo, warm uplifting vocals, gentle drum fade out\]
Study notes
Key Themes and Meaning • The Universal Invitation: The banquet represents God's salvation and the joy of His kingdom, which is offered generously to people. • Flawed Excuses: The first-invited guests (representing self-sufficient or religious insiders who rejected Jesus) make trivial or superficial excuses involving property, work, and family to decline. These show that earthly distractions can harden people against spiritual priorities. • Inclusion of the Outcasts: Angered by the rejection, the master commands his servant to bring in the "poor, the crippled, the blind, and the lame" from the streets, and later those from the highways. This demonstrates that God's grace prioritizes the humble, the broken, and those society rejects. • Urgency and Choice: A refusal has permanent consequences—those who turn down the invitation exclude themselves from the feast. Responding to God requires active faith, humility, and placing Him above material or social ties. -Google
