The Great Banquet
{Written by, Candice Landis, 9/16/2014)
An Invitation From Our Father Above
To Recharge Our Spirit While We Bask In His Love
A Chance To Slow Down And Catch Our Breath
To Surrender To Him What Ever Is Weighing Heavily On Our Chest
A Chance To Open Up, Talk And Listen
A Chance To Be Held, Healed, And Forgiven
A Chance To Meet More Of Our Brothers And Sisters In Christ
To Gather Together And Form Bonds That Will Last Our Whole Life
A Weekend Full Of Joy, Sorrow, Laughter And Healing Tears
The Banquet Is Where Jesus Lifts Our Burdens, Some We've Been Carrying For Years
Getting Invited To The Great Banquet Is A Very Glorious Gift Indeed
It Means God Is Watching Us, Has Heard Our Plea, And Wishes To Answer Our Need
So Don't Be Quick To Reject It Or Say No Right Away
Take Some Time To Consider It, And Pray
Jesus Hung On That Cross So We Could Be Forgiven Our Sinful Ways
All He's Asking Is You Let Him Restore You Over The Span Of A Few Days
So Accept Your Heaven Sent Invitation
Surrender Your Feelings Of Shame, Guilt, Greed, And Condemnation
Let Him Heal You And Cleanse You As You Fellowship In Love
You My Friend Have Just Been Invited To A Celebration Hosted By Our Father In Heaven
