[VERSE 1]
We place up-on Your tab-[C]le, a gleaming cloth of whit[G]e,
The weaving of our stor-[C]ies, the fabric of our live[D]s
The dreams of those be-f[G]ore us, [Em] the an-cient hopeful c[C]ries
The promise of our [G]future, our needing and our [Am]nur-ture,
li[D]e here before our [G]eyes.
[CHORUS]
We come to your [C]feast, we come to your f[G]east,
The young and the [Em]old, the frightened, the [A]bold, the greatest and the [D]least.
We come to your [C]feast, we come to your f[G]east,
With the fruit of our [Am]lands, and the work of our [D]hands,
We come to your f[G]east
[VERSE 2]
We place upon your [C]table a humble loaf of [G]bread
The gift of field and [C]hill-side, the grain by which we’re [D]fed
We come to taste the [G]presence[Em] of Him on whom we [C]feed
To strengthen and co[G]n-nect us, to chal-lenge and cor-[Am]rect us,
To[D] loving word and [G]deed
[CHORUS]
We come to your [C]feast, we come to your f[G]east,
The young and the [Em]old, the frightened, the [A]bold, the greatest and the [D]least.
We come to your [C]feast, we come to your f[G]east,
With the fruit of our [Am]lands, and the work of our [D]hands,
We come to your f[G]east
[VERSE 3]
We place upon your [C]table a simple cup of [G]wine
The fruit of human l[C]a-bor, the gift of sun and [D]vine
We come to taste the [G]presence[Em] of him we claim as [D]Lord
His dying and his [G]living, His leading and his [Am]giving
Hi[D]s loving cup out-p[G]oured
[CHORUS]
We come to your [C]feast, we come to your f[G]east,
The young and the [Em]old, the frightened, the [A]bold, the greatest and the [D]least.
We come to your [C]feast, we come to your f[G]east,
With the fruit of our [Am]lands, and the work of our [D]hands,
We come to your f[G]east
[VERSE 4]
We gather round your [C]table because we feel op-[G]pressed
To stand beside our neigh[C] -bors we name the stranger [D]guest
The feast is spread be-[G]fore us [Em] You bid us come and [D]dine
The blessing we’ll un-[G]cover In sharing we’ll [Am]discover,
You[D]r substance and your [G]sign
We place up-on Your tab-[C]le, a gleaming cloth of whit[G]e,
The weaving of our stor-[C]ies, the fabric of our live[D]s
The dreams of those be-f[G]ore us, [Em] the an-cient hopeful c[C]ries
The promise of our [G]future, our needing and our [Am]nur-ture,
li[D]e here before our [G]eyes.
