Come, Lord Jesus, to This Place
Donald Busarow
Text by Jaroslav Vajda

Sung on this track by the PURPLE cantor.

Text:
Come, Lord Jesus, to this place,
Cheer it, fill it with Your grace;
Guest and Friend, none more desired,
Bless the vows by You inspired.

Witness of this moment rare,
Free from sorrow, free from care;
For the years that lie ahead:
Promised joy and promised bread.

Seal the love that makes them one,
Love, their never-setting sun,
Love enough to face all fears,
Love enough to dry all tears.

As You love the Church, Your Bride,
In such love may they abide;
As Your Bride is bound to You,
Keep them faithful, Lord, and true.
