Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Together in Song #505 (1999) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Witness to Community Lyrics: 1 Jesus invites his saints
to meet around his board;

of our descending God!

Christ and his members one:
we the young children of his love,
and he the first-born Son.

of the same broken bread;
our body hath its several limbs,
but Jesus is the head.
5 Let all our powers be joined
his glorious name to raise;
pleasure and love fill every mind
and every voice be praise.

for an empire, unbelieving as it falls apart,
when your thunder goes unheard, we will tend the prophet's word,
and in season, out of season, we will sing your song.

when we've sown a hundred whirlwinds, but have yet to reap,
when the platitudes of peace only make our fears increase,
with a poem and a story we will sing your song.
3 When the palace looks at poverty with scornful eyes,
when the scroll of truth is shredded by a leader's lies,
when the glory of the cross is a propaganda gloss,

4 We will break the jar of plenty by the gates of gold,
we will buy a field of promise when the farm is sold,
at the ending of the dream, in the death of self esteem,
at the bank and in the market we will sing your song.
5 We will praise the grainy granite of the Law's demands,
and the Life-creating, Lover-God with wounded hands;
we will spin your story-line to an empire in decline
and in exile or in honour we will sing your song. Scripture: 2 Timothy 4:1-5 Languages: English Tune Title: KELVIN GROVE
