The Table

Chris Tomlin builds "The Table" around a single verb repeated across several different needs — "I will feast at the table of the Lord... I won't hunger anymore... there is peace at the table of the Lord, I won't worry anymore... there is healing at the table of the Lord, I won't suffer anymore." Hunger, worry, and suffering each get their own verse and their own specific resolution.

"Come all you weary; come and find, His yoke is easy; His burden light, he is able; he will restore" quotes Jesus' own invitation directly, keeping the table's hospitality tied to a specific promise rather than generic comfort. "With the saints around the mercy seat of God" widens the image from a private meal to a shared one.

"I'm invited to the table of the Lord... he says, 'come just as you are'" closes the song on the terms of the invitation itself — no preparation required, no condition attached beyond simply coming.
