From the recording Come to the Table
Lyrics
I know of a place built upon grace
Where all can gather ‘round
A sacred space marked with embrace
Where bread and wine abound
Where fighters find freedom from every wound and wrong
Where outcasts and outliers find they finally belong
Come to the table
Pull up a chair
With the one who is gentle
With the one who is care
Come to the table
There’s room for all kinds
With the one who is mercy
With the one who is life
Come to the table
The table makes room for reliance to bloom
In this age of broken trust
The table assumes every question has value
With an answer that is just
Where the hopeless reveal the sorrow without pretense
Where enemies lay down their weapons and make amends
Come to the table
Pull up a chair
With the one who is gentle
With the one who is care
Come to the table
There’s room for all kinds
With the one who is mercy
With the one who is life
Come to the table
Oh, heaven knows what keeps the long lost one from sitting down
Oh, heaven knows what joy awaits when what was lost is found
So come to the table
Pull up a chair
With the one who is gentle
With the one who is care
Come to the table
There’s room for all kinds
With the one who is mercy
With the one who is life
Come to the table
Come to the table
I know of a place built upon grace
Where all can gather ‘round
