The gardener bends down, his hands till the earth
He sees its rich color and knows what its worth
The grain that he grows will someday become bread
And he knows what his minister means when she says
(Chorus)
We are the body of Christ, forgiven so we can be whole
We, we are given this life, called forth and sent to the world
The vine tender toils a long day in the sun
His joy is in sharing a meal when he’s done
He sits at a table, with his family and friends
They join hands together with a prayer he begins.
The faithful have come, the table is set
a meals been prepared, the elements blessed
The banquet is open my the mystery reveal
that we find our wholeness in the grace that can heal
