I gave myself to hate as it passed by
I followed it to shadow, it left me there to die
I could find no reason left for life
But in the worst of all my sadness, suddenly a light

Love brought me water and food for life
Gave me shelter from the cold, and warmth throughout the night
He spoke of the mountain He had climbed
And of the table He's prepared, where Kings and Thieves will dine

And all at once I'm a brother and a friend
With a place to lay my head, where all the hurt will end

Where Kings and Queens eat with sinners and thieves
And somewhere in the midst of it there's a place for me
You sit at the table and You raise your glass high
You say
Drink with me brother, in the light of new life

And side by side we began to walk
He carried me through places I never thought to cross
And for every word of hate left on my tongue
He took the sting I earned and gave me brand new songs

And all the wounds I've carried and I gave
Are turned to fountains, bleeding beauty and grace

For Kings and Queens eat with sinners and thieves
And somewhere in the midst of it there's a place for me
You sit at the table and You raise your glass high
You say
Drink with me brother, in the light of new life

And everything I ever was
Is raged against by redeeming blood
Will I ever know the end of your lover
I thought I knew, but you're so much kinder

Teach me your way, O Lord, and lead me on a level path because of my enemies
Give me not up to the will of my adversaries; for false witnesses have risen against me, and they breathe out violence
I believe that I shall look upon the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living
Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord
