Come to the Table

My blog title is meant to welcome you to my home and table, and to remind us all that God is always calling us to His table.

Michael Card is one of my favorite Christian singers (John Michael Talbot is the other). Although his lyrics are not 100% theologically correct, this song inspires my appreciation of the Eucharist. I've finally managed to install a version of the song (Thank you, Anne!); click above to hear it.

"Come to the table and savor the sight
The wine and the bread that was broken
And all have been welcomed to come if they might
Accept as their own these two tokens.

The bread is His body, the wine is the blood
And the One who provides them is true
He freely offers, we freely receive
To accept and believe Him is all we must do.

Come to the table and taste of the Glory
And savor the sorrow, He's dying tomorrow
The hand that is breaking the bread
Soon will be broken.

And here at the table sit those who have loved Him
One is a traitor and one will deny
Though He's lived His life for them all
And for all be crucified.

Come to the table He's prepared for you
The bread of forgiveness, the wine of release
Come to the table and sit down beside Him
The Savior wants you to join in the feast.

Come to the table and see in His eyes
The love that the Father has spoken
And know you are welcome, whatever your crime
Though every commandment you've broken.

For He's come to love you and not to condemn
And He offers a pardon of peace
If you'll come to the table, you'll feel in your heart
The greatest forgiveness, the greatest release."

Michael Card
