Table of Grace (We Can Do Better)

Lyrics

[Intro – Swampy Southern guitar riff + kick drum]
Ohhh… yeah yeah yeah…
Come on home… come on home…

⸻

[Verse 1]
He sang about addiction, the ache behind the fame
We shouted “face your judgment,” but never touched his pain
Wrapped truth in cold religion, left mercy off the page
When what the world is dying for… is a table full of grace

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]
Jesus broke bread with the broken and the scarred
Didn’t wait for cleaned-up hearts

⸻

[Chorus – Big hook, repeat line]
Come to the table of grace
No shame, no fear, just a place
For the sinner and the saint
For the strong and the ashamed
Come to the table of grace
Lay your burdens, find your place
We can love like He loved us
We can heal what hate defaced
Come to the table of grace… come to the table of grace

⸻

[Verse 2]
Our children see us fighting, hear sermons wrapped in spite
They crave a kind of Jesus that walks with them at night
The Church is still a hospital, and we all need a cure
Don’t build a wall of judgments when an open door is pure

⸻

[Pre-Chorus – Build with urgency]
Let’s drop the stones we’re gripping in our hands
And reach like Jesus can

⸻

[Chorus – With choir echoes / call & response]
Come to the table of grace (Come to the table)
No shame, no fear, just a place (Oh, just a place)
For the weary and the wild (The lost and found)
For the orphan and the child (Come gather ‘round)
Come to the table of grace (Oh Lord, we need it)
Mercy poured out, love unchained (It’s what He gave)
We can do better, love like He loves
We’ve got grace to give today
Come to the table of grace… come to the table of grace

⸻

[Bridge – Acoustic drop, gospel harmony]
Not just saved from hell to come
But from the hell we’re living in
Not just thunder from the mountaintop
But a whisper drawing us in

⸻

[Final Chorus – Full swell + gospel choir]
Come to the table of grace (Come one, come all)
The broken find a place (There’s room for us all)
We can be stronger, love a little louder
Lift each other from the fall
Come to the table of grace
This is how we run the race
Not by pride, not by tribe
But by Jesus, face to face
Come to the table of grace… come to the table of grace…
Let the healing… begin…
