Charles Wesley • English

Primary Scripture: Luke 24:30-31

Verse 1

O what delight is this, Which now in Christ we know, An earnest of our glorious bliss, Or heaven begun below!

When He the table spreads, How royal is the cheer! With rapture we lift up our heads, And own that God is here.

The Lamb for sinners slain, Who died to die no more, Let all the ransomed sons of men, With all His hosts adore.

Let earth and heaven be joined, His glories to display, And hymn the Savior of mankind In one eternal day.
