O Come to the altar

O Come to the altar

[Verse 1:]
Are you hurting and broken within
Overwhelmed by the weight of your sin
Jesus is calling
Have you come to the end of yourself
Do you thirst for a drink from the well
Jesus is calling


[Chorus:]

O come to the altar
The Father's arms are open wide
Forgiveness was bought with
The precious blood of Jesus Christ


[Verse 2:]

Leave behind your regrets and mistakes
Come today there's no reason to wait
Jesus is calling
Bring your sorrows and trade them for joy
From the ashes a new life is born
Jesus is calling


[Chorus x2:]

O come to the altar
The Father's arms are open wide
Forgiveness was bought with
The precious blood of Jesus Christ


[Bridge x2:]

Oh what a Savior
Isn't he wonderful
Sing alleluia, Christ is risen
Bow down before him
For he is Lord of all
Sing alleluia, Christ is risen


[Chorus x2:]

O come to the altar
The Father's arms are open wide
Forgiveness was bought with
The precious blood of Jesus Christ


[Verse 3:]

Bear your cross as you wait for the crown
Tell the world of the treasure you've found

[Verse 1:]
Are you hurting and broken within
Overwhelmed by the weight of your sin
Jesus is calling
Have you come to the end of yourself
Do you thirst for a drink from the well
Jesus is calling


[Chorus:]

O come to the altar
The Father's arms are open wide
Forgiveness was bought with
The precious blood of Jesus Christ


[Verse 2:]

Leave behind your regrets and mistakes
Come today there's no reason to wait
Jesus is calling
Bring your sorrows and trade them for joy
From the ashes a new life is born
Jesus is calling


[Chorus x2:]

O come to the altar
The Father's arms are open wide
Forgiveness was bought with
The precious blood of Jesus Christ


[Bridge x2:]

Oh what a Savior
Isn't he wonderful
Sing alleluia, Christ is risen
Bow down before him
For he is Lord of all
Sing alleluia, Christ is risen


[Chorus x2:]

O come to the altar
The Father's arms are open wide
Forgiveness was bought with
The precious blood of Jesus Christ


[Verse 3:]

Bear your cross as you wait for the crown
Tell the world of the treasure you've found


O come to the altar
The Father's arms are open wide
Forgiveness was bought with
The precious blood of Jesus Christ
