Now we come to a gathering song from Patricia Smith in the As One Voice Digital store. It is a singable tune for any age. It could also be used for Gifts and Eucharist.
The sheet music can be purchased at Willow.
You can learn it by singing along with my BIAB backing.
Refrain
Here we gather, here we are fed, here we listen, here we are sent,
Word and Body given for us at the table of the Lord.
Word of God now spoken for us,
Bread of life now broken for us.
We believe and we become at the table of the Lord.
1 When we listen our hearts burn within us to hear the words you speak,
And you call us to know you again in the breaking of the bread.
2 As we journey through darkness and pain, you are always at our side.
Gently healing by your Word and your Body, you lead us into life.
3 In your words, Lord, we come to know you, and know your will for us.
In the Bread we share we are strengthened and sent to make your Kingdom come.
4 We receive you with open hearts, with spirits thirsting for you,
And you fill us with your gift of love, so that we are one with you.
