The Compassion of the Lord
1 s“Come, everyone who thirsts,come to the waters;
and he who has no money,
tcome, buy and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk
without money and without price.
2 uWhy do you spend your money for that which is not bread,
and your labor for that which does not satisfy?
Listen diligently to me, and eat what is good,
and delight yourselves in rich food.
