Making Room
V1
There is room at the table
a place at the feast
a space for the lost and the last and the least
The Lord of creation
Is washing our feet
The sinless is saving the sinner a seat
PC1
But the cost of your welcome
is the price of our peace
The call of your kingdom trumps comfort and greed
You suffered oppression
Yet blessed enemies
Power made perfect in love
C
You spread your arms
Making room for all your children
In your arms hung the nails of human hate
With those arms, you are building many mansions
We come as refugees and leave as citizens
V2
You arrived on a donkey
To thunderous acclaim
Our anger assuaged by those others to blame
Then you told us that evil
Ran right through us too
So we grabbed for Barabbas and crucified you.
PC2
We make our confession
Of blindness and pride
That a race or a nation has God on its side
Your glory is greater
Dressed up as defeat
Your cross is true victory
BRIDGE
Holy, Holy. Vulnerable and mighty
Holy, Holy. Perfect Lamb of God.
