Come to the table.
We all start on the outside, The outside looking in, This is where grace begins. We were hungry we were thirsty, With nothing left to give, Oh the shape that we were in. Just when all hope seemed lost, Love opened the door for us. He said come to the table, Come join the sinners who have been redeemed, Take your place beside the Saviour, Sit down and be set free, Come to the table. Come meet this mighty crew of misfits, Liars and these thieves, No one unwelcome here. That sin and shame that you brought with you, You can leave it at the door, And let mercy draw you near, Come to the table. Come join the sinners who have been redeemed. Take your place beside the Saviour, Sit down and be set free, Come to the table. Come to the table. To the thief and to the doubter, To the hero and the coward, To the prisoner and the soldier, To the young and to the older. All who hunger all who thirst, All the last and all the first, All the paupers and the princes, All who fail, you’ve been forgiven, All who dream and all who suffer, All who loved and lost another, All the chained and all the free, All who follow all who lead, Anyone who’s been let down, All the lost you have been found, All who have been labelled right or wrong, To everyone who hears this song, Come to the table. Come join the sinners you have been redeemed, Take your place beside the Saviour, Sit down and be set free, Oh, sit down and be set free, Come to the table. Come to the table. Just sit down there and rest awhile. Just sit down and rest awhile. Come to the table.
