Verse 1
As He gathered at His table
Those who longed to know the way
Christ proclaimed a holy mystery
Still His words call us today
As He took the towel and basin
Not as Master but as Friend
Christ portrayed the way of service
Still in serving we must bend
Verse 2
As He blessed the bread and broke it
Human need to satisfy
Christ made even traitors welcome
Still we question is it I
As He took the cup and shared it
Telling of the Father's care
Christ poured out Himself in promise
Still that covenant we must share
Verse 3
As they sang a hymn together
Praising Israel's saving King
Hearts and voices made one music
Still delivering love we sing
Though this feast be one of symbols
What we celebrate is real
Still Christ welcomes to His table
Still Christ serves us at His meal
