The Table
A Divine Feast: Finding Home at God's Table
Lyrics
Toast to the night
Celebrating the night with a toast.
Drink in the memories
Reflecting on and savoring past experiences.
Let's have our fill of all that's right
Indulging in all that is morally good and just.
Looking around, telling the stories
Sharing and recounting personal narratives.
We could go on with this all night
Expressing a desire to continue the positive atmosphere throughout the night.
Something is familiar, like a place I've been
Feeling a sense of familiarity, possibly with spiritual or meaningful places.
Or maybe somewhere I will go
Anticipating future experiences or journeys.
A feeling of forever and something kinda holy
Sensing a timeless and sacred quality, reminiscent of something divine.
A little bit of heaven in my home
Finding a heavenly essence within one's own home.
Save me a seat at Your table
Desiring a place at God's table for a communal experience.
I want to be next to You when we dine
Expressing the wish to be close to God during communal meals.
Rest my head on Your shoulder
Seeking comfort and closeness to the divine.
I want to sit at the table of God
Expressing a longing to be in the presence of God.
The invitation, this bread and wine
Referring to the symbolic elements of communion, bread, and wine.
Holding the sweetness of life
Holding onto the sweetness and richness of life through these symbolic elements.
Oh, I can taste it, now and then
Tasting the divine essence intermittently.
We'll be here again
Expecting to return to these moments of spiritual significance.
Something is familiar, like a place I've been
Reiterating the sense of familiarity with spiritual places or experiences.
Or maybe somewhere I will go
Anticipating future spiritual journeys.
A feeling of forever and something kinda holy
Feeling a connection to the eternal and sacred.
A little bit of heaven in my home
Finding a heavenly presence within the home environment.
Save me a seat at Your table
Requesting a reserved place at God's table for communal dining.
I want to be next to You when we dine
Expressing the desire to be close to God during shared meals.
Rest my head on Your shoulder
Seeking solace and connection by resting on God's metaphorical shoulder.
I want to sit at the table of God
Longing to be part of the divine table experience.
Oh, let me sit, let me sit
Expressing a plea to sit at the table of the Lord.
Let me come sit at the table Lord
Reaffirming the desire to be seated at God's table.
I will rest, I will rest, I will rest my head
Expressing the intention to find rest when in the presence of God.
I will rest my head when I'm with You
Reiterating the idea of finding rest in God's company.
Oh I will rest my head when I'm with You
Emphasizing the peace and rest experienced in God's presence.
In the end, we will go
Anticipating a journey to a familiar spiritual place.
To that table I've known
Expecting to reach a known divine gathering, possibly an afterlife metaphor.
Feast forever, thirsty never
Envisioning an eternal feast and a perpetual lack of spiritual thirst.
We'll sing, I am home, I am home
Celebrating the sense of belonging and being home in the divine presence.
Save me a seat at Your table
Repeating the request for a reserved place at God's table for communal dining.
I want to be next to You when we dine
Reiterating the desire to be close to God during shared meals.
Rest my head on Your shoulder
Seeking solace and connection by resting on God's metaphorical shoulder.
I want to sit at the table of God
Longing to be part of the divine table experience.
Oh, I want to sit at the table of God
Expressing a deep desire to be in the presence of God at His table.
