As We Gather at Your Table

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., 1944- Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 27 hymnals Lyrics: 1 As we gather at Your table, As we listen to Your word, Help us know, O God, Your presence; Let our hearts and minds be stirred. Nourish us with sacred story Till we claim it as our own; Teach us through this holy banquet How to make Love's vict'ry known. 2 Turn our worship into witness In the sacrament of life; Send us forth to love and serve You, Bringing peace where there is strife. Give us, Christ, Your great compassion To forgive as You forgave; May we still behold Your image In the world You died to save. 3 Gracious Spirit, help us summon Other guests to share that feast Where triumphant Love will welcome Those who had been last and least. There no more will envy blind us Nor will pride our peace destroy, As we join with saints and angels To repeat the sounding joy.
