Is this a correct sentence?

It's grammatically correct. However, I wouldn't say it.

We sometimes use "do" to start an imperative sentence.
Here are some examples that I think are more likely to be used than this sentence.

[#2245265] Do come in. (CK) *audio*
[#2047581] Do be careful. (CK) *audio*
[#51317] Do come and visit us. (CK) *audio*
[#51290] Do come by all means. (CK) *audio*
[#32671] Do come again. (CM)
[#274497] Do watch your step. (CM)
[#271248] Do come to the party. (CK)
[#51316] Do come and see us tomorrow. (CM)
