We Come to Your Feast

We place upon your table
a humble loaf of bread,
the gift of field and hill-side,
the grain by which we’re fed.
We come to taste the Presence
of Him on whom we feed,
to strengthen and connect us
to love in word and deed.

We come to your feast,
to love in word and deed.
We come to your feast
with the fruit of our lands
and the work of our hands,
we come to your feast.
Michael Joncas
