Lyrics

Verse 1
Once there was a King who held a wedding feast.
Said He to His servants, "Go out into the street,
invite anyone you find, invite everyone you see;
good and bad, one and all, invite them to my wedding hall."
Verse 2
And so the servants went, they went into the street.
They went to ev'ry corner, they spoke to all they'd meet.
They gathered all they found, gathered everyone around,
good and bad, one and all, they came into the wedding hall.
Verse 3
The wedding hall was filled; for many guests had come
to join the King and celebrate the wedding of His Son.
An empty seat could not be found, some did sit upon the ground.
Good and bad, one and all, they packed out the wedding hall.
Verse 4
But when the King came in, He noticed a man there
not wearing his wedding clothes. How could he even dare
not to wear the wedding garments that were given by the King
to good and bad, one and all, to all there in the wedding hall?
Verse 5
"Friend," he said to the man, "how did you get in here
not wearing your wedding clothes- have you no godly fear?"
For the King was very angry, Yes, the King - He was enraged.
He looked around the wedding hall, He stood there amongst them all.
Verse 6
The man, he had no words, no answer for the King.
He sat there speechless, he did not say a thing.
For he had scorned the costly robes given freely by the King,
to good and bad, one and all, to all there in the wedding hall.
Verse 7
Said the King to His attendants, "Take him, tie his hands and feet,
throw him out into the darkness, there he will weep and gnash his teeth."
Verse 8
There is a purpose To the singing of this song;
there are two groups of people; to which do you belong?
Are you a servant of the King, sent out into the streets?
Invite good and bad, one and all; invite them to the wedding hall.
Verse 9
If you are not a servant but you have come to dine,
please put on the wedding clothes; you may not have much time.
The King will come to see His guests and the King will look at you.
He sees - the good and bad, one and all -
Will He send you from His wedding hall?
Ending:
He sees - the good and bad, one and all -
Will He send you from His wedding hall?
