One Meal

All together, one table, one meal
they lived, worshipped, ate together
a single life the lives of the apostles
early believers on the way
sharing all, to spread his message
to bring God’s love
out into the world
bringing their lives together
one community, one meal
In meals shared, in sacrament, in community
we share in their legacy
share the table with them
