Hymn
Jesus, at Your Holy Table

Jesus, at Your holy table, May our hearts united be.
Bind us with Your grace and presence That redeem and set us free.
Crucify our pride and hatred, Light the path on which we walk. 
Teach us how to love each other, In the way that You have taught.

Christ, remind us of Your passion, Of Your precious life out-poured,
Of the love which none can fathom, And our victory evermore.
Bread of heaven, wine of promise, Feed us with Your holy Word.
Nourish us with Your strong presence, Risen Savior, only Lord.

Lift your hearts and raise your voices, Celebrate this wondrous love.
Join the chorus with all Christians, And with saints who live above.
Silent lips now sing with gladness, Blinded eyes are filled with sight.
Jesus’ love has pierced our darkness, Bro’t us home to peace and light.
