A Royal Banquet

1      He knew love and joy and tears

        He felt compassion, pain and fear

        And he longs to hold us in the shadow of his wings.

        For he knows our weaknesses

        And he wants us to be the guests:

        A royal banquet with the King of Kings

        A royal banquet with the King of Kings

Ch   (Women)       Who shall we say he is?

        (Men)             In the beginning was the Word

        (Women)       Who shall we say he is?

        (Men)             And the Word became Flesh

        (Both)            And the Word lived among us

                               And we have seen his glory...

2      Fully God and fully man

        Our Lord, eternal great "I am"

        And we, undeserving, know the fulness that he brings.

        Mercy for humanity

        Abundance for our poverty

        A royal banquet with the King of Kings

        A royal banquet with the King of Kings

        (repeat chorus and finish with...)

3      And - we know we're in his care

        Until - the glorious day we share

        A royal banquet with the King of Kings

        A royal banquet with the King of Kings

        A royal banquet with the King of Kings

        A royal banquet - with the King of Kings !
