Lead Sheet: The Table of the King

Words & Music: Dennis Jernigan
Received March 19, 2012

Far too often we think all we deserve is to sit beneath the table of life and settle for
crumbs when, in reality, our Father has set a feast before us in the very midst of our
circumstances. We are joint-heirs with Christ, entitling us to all the Kingdom has
for us – in THIS life. Unashamedly have a seat at the table and partake of God’s
presence. Settle for nothing less than God’s best. This song came as I thought about
the vast expanse of God’s Kingdom available in this life...that I do not take
advantage of. I am who my Father says I am - and He says I am a joint-heir with
Christ!

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies...
Psalm 23:5a NASB

The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God, and if
children, heirs also, heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer
with Him so that we may also be glorified with Him...

Romans 8:16-17 NASB

Verse
I have sat beneath the table
Thinking I deserve but crumbs
When all along You have been calling me to come!
You have set a feast before me
I have but to take and eat
You have called me to the table of the King!

Chorus
I refuse to settle for anything but Your best!
I am claiming all the Kingdom has for me and nothing less!
I will celebrate Your presence in the feast at the table set for me!
At the table of my King I will sit and I will eat!
I will celebrate Your presence in the face of enemies!
I will celebrate Your presence in the feast at the table of the King!

Verse
You have set a feast before me
I have but to take and eat
You have called me to the table of the King!

Chorus
I refuse to settle for anything but Your best!
I am claiming all the Kingdom has for me and nothing less!
I will celebrate Your presence in the feast at the table set for me!
At the table of my King I will sit and I will eat!
I will celebrate Your presence in the face of enemies!
I will celebrate Your presence in the feast at the table of the King!

(meant to lead congregation into open worship)

I am an heir with the Risen King!
I have a place Father set for me!
I will taste the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living!

I will take the Bread of Life and eat!
I will take the Living Water, drink deep!
I will taste and see that the Lord, that the Lord is good!

My soul hungers!
