around the table

around the table

(C2/G/Am/F/Dm)

(verse 1)     it's magic, this feasting neighbors under the stars
with laughter-lit candles we're strangers no more
i want to taste and see all that i ever can of love

(verse 2)     it's power, this shadow under the cross
the light on my face of such willing loss
for all that is gain in this precious body and blood

around the table

(chorus)     i come as i am and bring what i have
hungry as anything to know and be known
to be who i am and never feel alone

around the table

(bridge)     you set a place and we are fed
filled and understood
every guest seat has room for more
as wine and bread keep flowing

around the table

we come as we are and bring what we have
hungry as anything to know and be known
to be who we are and never feel alone

around the table, around the table
there's room at the table, won't you come to the table

ls 8.27.17
