Come and Taste Real Love

Jesus Christ only begotten of the father
God of very God eternally and true
came to earth to live as the God man
obeying His father living always to do

Displaying the fullest sacrifice of life
showed the deepest expression of love
proved compassion of the fullest heart
such was manifested from God above

No other love has mankind known
of such splendour purity and magnitude
this took Christ to mount Calvary cross
dying for our sins on a cross of wood

This is real love totally divine
come and taste it God does invite
all to come in to His banquet house
sit down there and take a love bite

Feel the juices and the soft texture
engulf within your taste buds aright
nothing can compare with God’s love
beautiful and enrapturing ever so bright
