1 Build a longer table, not a higher wall,
feeding those who hunger, making room for all.
Feasting together, stranger turns to friend,
Christ breaks walls to pieces; false divisions end.
2 Build a safer refuge, not a larger jail;
where the weak find shelter, mercy will not fail.
When we embrace compassion more than fear,
Christ tears down our fences: all are welcome here.
4 When we lived as exiles, refugees abroad,
Christ became our doorway to the reign of God.
So must our tables welcome those who roam.
None can be excluded; all must find a home.
