Entrance | Table of Plenty

Come to feast of Heaven and earth
Come to the table of plenty
God will provide for all that we need
Here at the table of plenty

O come and eat without money
Come to drink without price
My feast of gladness will feed
your spirit with faith and fullness of life

Come to feast of Heaven and earth
Come to the table of plenty
God will provide for all that we need
Here at the table of plenty

Offertory | Better Than a Hallelujah

God loves a lullaby
in a mother’s tears in the dead of night
Better than a Hallelujah, sometimes

God loves the drunkard’s cry
The soldier’s plea not to let him die
Better than a Hallelujah, sometimes

We pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful, the mess we are
The honest cries of breaking hearts
are better than a Hallelujah

A woman holding on for life
A dying man giving up the fight
are better than a Hallelujah. sometimes

Tears of shame for what’s been done
the silence when the words won’t come
are better than a Hallelujah, sometimes

And we pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful, the mess we are
The honest cries of breaking hearts
are better than a Hallelujah

Communion | There Will Be Bread

There was a gathering of thousands
but no food to satisfy them
when a child was brought before the Lord
with only loaves and fishes

Though the gift appeared too little
the Lord increased it by a thousand
as the off’ring filled___the masses with___
the love of God among them

There will be bread for all who hunger
There will be drink for all who thirst
When we go forth and give as we’ve received
our God is come to earth

For we are bread and drink and blessing
we are hope for all the world
When we share the love that we’ve been fed
there will be bread

We hear the empty cries of millions
with no food to satisfy them
And we ask what we alone can do
We feel so very helpless

Though our gifts appear too little
We must have faith He will increase them
For the God of loaves and fishes is
the Lord of earth and Heaven

There will be bread for all who hunger
There will be drink for all who thirst
When we go forth and give as we’ve received
our God is come to earth

For we are bread and drink and blessing
we are hope for all the world
When we share the love that we’ve been fed
there will be bread

When we share the love that we’ve been fed
there will be bread

Recessional | Give Thanks

Give thanks with a grateful heart
Give thanks to the Holy One
Give thanks because He’s given
Jesus Christ, His Son

And now, let the weak say, “I am strong”
Let the poor say, “I am rich”
Because of what the Lord has done___for us

Give thanks
We give thanks
We give thanks
