Lyrics

NARRATOR: The little baby boy was first cradled by the rough and worn hands of a carpenter. Hands that had known the splinters of wood were holding the splendor of heaven. Joseph was a simple man holding infinity—a limited, earthly father caring for the limitless Son of God. The child’s mother was a maiden, so fair and humble. Mary embodied what God looks for in a person where He will take residence—the willingness to give Him her whole heart. For the things God can do with an unqualified invitation goes beyond human understanding. He specializes in the miraculous. And what a miracle Jesus turned out to be. No palace worthy of our King Too many walls to keep Him in But a mansion worthy of this Son Was a stable that said, “Welcome” A journey on a starry night The wisest ones followed the light They gathered ’round the holy One Who was born to love and lead us home Hark! the herald angels sing Hear the sound and enter in There’s a place reserved, just come ’Cause Jesus eats with everyone A child who is the King of kings Who made a way of grace for sin Our humble Savior gave it all So we’d be seated with the Lord Hark! the herald angels sing Hear the sound and enter in There’s a place reserved, just come ’Cause Jesus eats with everyone Hear the whisper of His heart The goodness of our saving God It doesn’t matter what we’ve done ’Cause Jesus eats with everyone NARRATOR: His parents were ordinary, common people, and Jesus came in an ordinary, common way. But the life He lived—and the life He calls us to—is anything but ordinary. We're gathered at the table Table of the Lord Come one, come all Come as you are We’re gathered at the table Table of the Lord Come one, come all Come as you are We’re gathered at the table Table of the Lord Come one, come all Come as you are We’re gathered at the table Table of the Lord Come one, come all Come as you are Hear the whisper of His heart The goodness of our saving God It doesn’t matter what we’ve done ’Cause Jesus eats with everyone NARRATOR: And so, in the same way that Jesus shared this meal with His disciples, He still offers to share it with anyone who will trust in Him. Come to His table … take … eat … drink … and live. (Oo Oo Oo Oo Oo Oo )...
