Entrance | Table of Plenty
Refrain
Come to the 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.
1. Your fields will flower in fullness;
your homes will flourish in peace.
For I, the giver of home and harvest,
will send my rain on the soil.
2. My bread will ever sustain you
through days of sorrow and woe.
My wine will flow like a sea of gladness
to flood the depths of your soul.
Offertory | Parable
Refrain
To ev’ry thing there is a season
A time to be born
And a time to die
[A time to plant
And a time for harvest
A time to meet
And a time to part]
Replace brackets after 1st verse
[A time to speak
And a time for silence
A time to wound
And a time to heal]
Replace brackets after 2nd verse
[A time for joy
And a time for grieving
A time to seek
And a time to loose]
1. A sower went out to sow the seed
Some of it fell upon the path
Some fell on shallow, rocky soil
And some among choking thorns
2. Nothing can grow in barren soil
Briars and ravens take their toll
Still there is grain a hundred fold
From seed that took root and grew
3. God’s word is like the farmer’s seed
Rooted in joyful, loving hearts
Growing like grain in fertile ground
A harvest that overflows
Communion | Remembrance
Verse 1
Oh, how could it be
That my god would welcome me
into this mystery?
Say ‘eat this bread, take this wine’
Now the simple made divine
for any to receive
By your mercy, we come to your table,
By Your grace you are making us faithful
Chorus
Lord, we remem-ber You,
And remembrance leads us to worship
And as we wor-ship You,
Our worship leads to communion
We respond to your invitation;
We remem-ber you
Verse 2
See his body, his blood-
Know that he has overcome
Every tril we will face
None to lost to be saved
None too broken or ashamed
All are welcome in this place.
By your mercy, we come to your table,
By Your grace you are making us faithful
Chorus
Bridge
Dying, you destroyed our death
Rising, you restored our life
Lord Jesus, come in glory
Lord Jesus, come in glory
Lord Jesus, come in glory
Lord Jesus, come in glory
Chorus
Recessional | City of God
Verse
We are sons of the morning
We are daughters of day
The one who has loved us
has brightened our way
The Lord of all kindness
has called us to be
a light for His people
to set their hearts free
Refrain
Let us build the city of God
May our tears be turned into dancing
For the Lord, our light and our love
has turned the night into day
Repeat refrain until end
