Baptism joins us to God’s heart
Which holds our lives in all their parts
And though our outsides may be gleaming
We really need our insides cleaning

As we think of Jesus’ life from birth-
Heaven crashing into earth
And right now, mindful of his death
We thirst to feel your spirit’s breath;
As resurrection draws us in
Calls us to put our faith in Him
Our Lord who stood where we would fall
To win this victory for us all

A certainty, and not a fable
Your invitation’s for the able
And those, like me, a lot less stable
To take our places at your table

Lord we think we’re good at living
It’s fortunate you’re all forgiving
As; though we think we’re quite well fed
We really, really need this bread

We’re grateful Lord, you see our need
To rely on grace and not on deeds
‘Cause even though we think we’re fine
We really, really need this wine

We sometimes think it’s no big deal
But in this sharing God reveals
The stage is set for us to heal
We really really need this meal
